Q. A complex number z1 has a magnitude ∣z1∣=12 and an angle θ1=45∘.Express z1 in rectangular form, as z1=a+bi.Express a+bi in exact terms.z1=
Convert angle to radians: To express a complex number in rectangular form, we use the polar to rectangular conversion formula: z=r(cos(θ)+isin(θ)), where r is the magnitude and θ is the angle in radians.
Calculate trigonometric values: First, we need to convert the angle from degrees to radians. The angle given is 45 degrees. To convert degrees to radians, we multiply by π/180. Thus, 45 degrees is 45×(π/180)=π/4 radians.
Substitute values into formula: Now we can use the magnitude r=12 and the angle θ=4π radians to find the rectangular form. We calculate the cosine and sine of 4π, which are both 2/2.
Simplify expression: Substitute r and the trigonometric values into the formula: z=12(cos(π/4)+isin(π/4))=12(2/2+i2/2).
Simplify expression: Substitute r and the trigonometric values into the formula: z=12(cos(π/4)+isin(π/4))=12(2/2+i2/2). Simplify the expression by multiplying 12 by 2/2 to get 122/2=62. So, z=62+62i.
