(1-i)^17/(1+isqur3)^9
-1.81161
its an ugly number
write the complex numbers into its trigonometric form and use DeMoivre's law or use the binomial theorem on both
it becomes squr2(cos 315+isin315)^17/2(cos60+isin60)
^9
2^7.5(cos(4815)+isin(4815))=0 ?
does anything seem wrong?
let's see
\[ \large 1-i=\sqrt{2}(\cos(7\pi/4)+i\sin(7\pi/4)) \] \[ \large 1+i\sqrt{3}=2(\cos(\pi/3)+i\sin(\pi/3)) \] right?
Correct
2=2^1 squr2=2^0.5
17-9=8
8-0.5=7.5
thats how I thought
then \[ \large (1-i)^{17}=\sqrt{2}^{17}[\cos(119\pi/4)+i\sin(119\pi/4)] \] \[ \large =2^8\cdot\sqrt{2}[\cos(14\cdot2\pi+7\pi/4)+i\sin(14\cdot2\pi+7\pi/4)] \] \[ \large =2^8\cdot\sqrt{2}[\cos(7\pi/4)+i\sin(7\pi/4)] \]
I dont really understand...
\[ \large (1+i\sqrt{3})^9=2^9[\cos(9\pi/3)+i\sin(9\pi/3)] \] \[ \large =2^9[\cos(3\pi)+i\sin(3\pi)]=2^9[\cos\pi+i\sin\pi] \]
what don't u understand?
the 119pi part
do u know DeMoivre's theorem \[ \large (\rho(\cos\phi+i\sin\phi))^n=\rho^n(\cos(n\phi)+i\sin(n\phi)) \] ??
Yes but how does that make it 119pi. I got 5355degrees and its not the same
for \(z=1-i\) we have \(\rho=\sqrt{2}\) and \(\phi=7\pi/4\) right?
So its wrong becouse I wrote in deggres and not pi? becouse 7pi/4=315 wich is what i got
yes
Why do I need to write in pi? Thanks so much for helping me!
it is usually better (actually customary) to use radians instead of degress when dealing with complex numbers
