Well, do you know the formula?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

de Moivre's formula that is.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Great, so you can apply that formula here to get the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, the exponent, 4, goes into the sine and cosine.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh A!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's not what I meant, it's D. You multiply the input of the sine and cosine by 4. That's what de Moivre's formula states.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

[e^(ix)]^n = (cosx + i.sinx)^n But since (e^x)^n = e^(x×n) then e^(i.nx) = (cosx + i.sinx)^n But by Euler's original formula, e^(i.nx) = cos(nx) + i.sin(nx), and therefore (cosx + i.sinx)^n = cos(nx) + i.sin(nx)
