If a complex number z=a+ib then the argument or amplitude of z is given by :

hartnn (hartnn):

as i have already stated \(|z|=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}\)

hartnn (hartnn):

which is amplitude

OpenStudy (hba):

Well the options are ... \[\tan^{-1} \frac{ a }{ b } or \tan^{-1} \frac{ b }{ a }\]

OpenStudy (nubeer):

its the second option. b/a

OpenStudy (hba):

please explain ?

hartnn (hartnn):

oh, the argument will be tan inverse (b/a)

OpenStudy (hba):

Explain ?

OpenStudy (hba):

@nubeer @hartnn

hartnn (hartnn):

i pretty much remember it as a defination...

OpenStudy (nubeer):

yes.. its more like a formula or something pre set. that u just have to remember.
