3. Use DeMoivre\'s theorem to evaluate the expression Write the result in standard form. (2(cos 36 +isin 36))
Solution
By demoivre\'s theorem,
eix = cosx + i sinx
Here taking x = 36
cos36 + isin36 = ei(36)
then,
(2(cos36 + isin36))5 = 25(cos36 + isin36)5
= 32(ei(36))5
= 32(ei(180))
= 32(-1)
= -32
{ ei(180) = cos180 + isin180
= -1 + 0
= -1. }
