Q. A complex number z1 has a magnitude ∣z1∣=13 and an angle θ1=315∘.Express z1 in rectangular form, as z1=a+bi.Express a+bi in exact terms.z1=□
Equations for Conversion: To convert a complex number from polar to rectangular form, we use the equations a=∣z∣cos(θ) and b=∣z∣sin(θ), where ∣z∣ is the magnitude and θ is the angle in radians.
Convert Angle to Radians: First, we need to convert the angle from degrees to radians. The angle given is 315 degrees. To convert degrees to radians, we multiply by π/180. So, θ1 in radians is 315×(π/180)=(7π/4) radians.
Find Real Part a: Now we can find the real part a of the complex number z1. We have ∣z1∣=13 and θ1=47π radians. So, a=13⋅cos(47π).
Find Imaginary Part b: The cosine of 47π is 22. Therefore, a=13×(22).
Simplify Expressions: Now we can find the imaginary part b of the complex number z1. We have ∣z1∣=13 and θ1=47π radians. So, b=13×sin(47π).
Final Result: The sine of 7π/4 is −2/2. Therefore, b=13×(−2/2).
Final Result: The sine of 47π is −22. Therefore, b=13×(−22). Simplifying the expressions for a and b, we get a=2132 and b=−2132.
Final Result: The sine of 7π/4 is −2/2. Therefore, b=13×(−2/2). Simplifying the expressions for a and b, we get a=132/2 and b=−132/2. Therefore, the complex number z1 in rectangular form is z1=132/2−132/2×i.
