this means nothing more but enter it to your calculator / or know some unit circle identities.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Also the angle has to be between -pi and pi. (by agreement)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
so what about this one?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
most important about all these problems is to know where you expect the complex number, I, II, III, or IV Quadrant.

can you answer this question? thinking about a complex coordinate plane?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
isnt there a formula?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
or we could solve all of the options like the last problem...

i thoughtA..
hartnn (hartnn):
nopes,that gives 6i
hartnn (hartnn):
as imaginary part
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well you can use the same formula as we did in the last example, of course, but you have to find an unique argument.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the argument of course depends on whether the complex number is in the first quadrant, or in the third, or wherever.

how do i figure out which quadraant?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the number is
\[\Large z=2-2\sqrt{3}i \]
Now recall that a complex number is always in this form
\[\Large z=x+iy \]
