the answers that i have are:
3(cos 0° + i sin 0°)
3(cos 90° + i sin 90°)
3(cos 180° + i sin 180°)
3(cos 270° + i sin 270°)
OpenStudy (amistre64):
you should be aware of the values for those trig functions ...
which one simplifies to your answer?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the first one?

@amistre64
OpenStudy (amistre64):
3(cos0 + isin0)
3(1 + i0) = 3, yes

i have no idea
OpenStudy (amistre64):
my idea is to first factor out the 3, what does that do for us?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3(1-i)
OpenStudy (amistre64):
website is not acting nicely is it
OpenStudy (amistre64):
you are correct, now, we know that the trig parts resembles
cos(x)+i sin(x)
so equate cos(x) to 1
nd sin(x) to -1
