Using DeMoivre's Theorem, find the indicated power of the complex number. Express the result in standard form. (2+2i)^6
Demovers is what: r^n (cos(nax) + sin(nbx)) ?? im sure i never remember that one right
the theta part is what i was missing :/
given:\[(a+bi)^n\] \[r=\sqrt{a^2+b^2};\ t=tan^{-1}(\frac{b}{a})\] \[(a+bi)^n=r^n(cos(nt)+isin(nt))\]

Need your help real quick
timmys in the well?
So (2+2i)^6, sqrt(8)=2sqrt(2), and tan^-1=2/2 = pi/4, now what?
Lassie!
now we fill in demovers
so 2sqrt(2)^6(cos(5*pi/4)+isin(5*pi/4))?
\[(a+bi)^n=r^n(cos(nt)+isin(nt))\] \[(2+2i)^6=(2\sqrt{2})^6(cos(6\frac{pi}4)+isin(6\frac{pi}4))\]
\[(2\sqrt{2})^6(cos(6\frac{pi}4)+isin(6\frac{pi}4))\] \[(64*8)(cos(\frac{3pi}2)+isin(\frac{3pi}2 ))\]
Sorry I meant 6 in my equation, typoed.
sin(t) = -1 there and cos(t)=0
(64*8)(-i)
480 32 ---- 512 -512i
Is there a different more easier way to do this?
and what does "sin(t) = -1 there and cos(t)=0" have to do with anything?
