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):

i got 8(-1/2+i - sqrt 3/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

jk D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(-;

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.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

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...

hartnn (hartnn):

only 4cps 300 gives 2 :P....its D again....

hartnn (hartnn):

*cos

OpenStudy (anonymous):

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.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

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 \[\Large z=x+iy \]

|dw:1344888170258:dw|
