write 6 (cos 330 deg +i sin 330deg in rectagular form
Use eulers formula, and what you know about trigonometric functions
First put it into exponential form
\[re^{i\phi}=r(\cos(\phi)+i\sin(\phi))\]
I assume you want to plot this on an argand diagram? where the imaginary line corresponds to your y axis and the real line corresponds to your horizontal axis
no they dnt want any diagram
Then how do you expect to graph a complex number in the real Cartesian plane
is it -3 sqrt 3+3i
Oh you just want to simplify it in terms of radicals
yeah
I would first change your degrees to radians, and then calculate the cosine and sine functions using memorized values.
alternatively you could just type it on this site, www.wolframalpha.com
It should give you a list of expressions all equivilent
Here il do it for you, and show you what I get
k thanks
thanks
ye
6 (cos 330 deg +i sin 330deg) Rectangular means a+ ib form...but hey! It does look a bit like it already, so simplify that! Expand: 6cos330 + 6i sin330 Now cos 330 = cos 30 = sqrt(3)/2(using ASTC rules) and sin330 = - sin30 = -1/2 So the answer is 6(sqrt(3)/2) + 6i (-1/2) = \[6\sqrt{3}/2 - 3i = 3\sqrt{3} - 3i\]
ohhh i c thanks
