Trigonometrical forms: -
@terenzreignz sir I learned how to convert a complex number into a polar or trigonometrical form. But now I have a problem. would u solve; plz?
from u.
Would you like to show me?
^_^ \[\sin 32^o+ i \cos 32^o\]
plz tell me how to convert it into trigo form?
Trigonometric form is... \[re^{i \theta}\] Is that what you meant?
no \[\cos \theta + i \sin \theta\] this one is which i want:)
For a 'normal' complex number of a + bi, how do you normally convert it to trigonometric? :)
\[\sqrt{a^2+b^2}[\cos (\tan ^{-1}\frac{b}{a})+ i \sin (\tan^{-1}\frac{b}{a})]\]
well, no matter how complicated it looks, I suggest you do that with your sin 32 and cos 32 as well :)
Oh, and feel free to ask me further questions if you get stuck :)
but one my friend did like that sin 32 =cos 58 cos 32 =sin 58 so question will look like cos 58 + i sin 58 which in fact is answer which is given in my book but i wanna know why did he converted them like that?
Oh ok, that works (and is much faster than what I did, I'm sorry )
np:)
That's because by converting, you've suddenly turned it into the form you desired that is to say cos theta + isin theta
no no i don't want that I want why he wrote cos 32=sin 58 & sin 32 = cos 58
ahh ok:) You know that \[\sin(A + B) = sinA cosB + cosA sinB\] right?
yeah:)
Well \[\sin(90^{o} - A) = \sin90^{o}cosA - \cos90^{o}sinA\] cos 90 = 0 sin 90 = 1, so \[\sin(90^{o} - A) = cosA\]
Do you understand now? :)
k! i gt it now. thanx a lot:)
No problem :)
