Stuck on this one problem Express the complex number in trigonometric form. -5i 5(cos 270° + i sin 270°) 5(cos 180° + i sin 180°) 5(cos 90° + i sin 90°) 5(cos 0° + i sin 0°)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the absolute value is pretty clearly 5, ad that is in each of your answer the only question is, what is the angle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

still pretty confused sorry :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh wait! would it be 3pi/5 which would mean the angle is 270 degrees?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
