Find the modulus of each of the following complex numbers and hence express each of them in polar form: 2i

Let Z = 2i = r(cosθ + isinθ)


Now , separating real and complex part , we get


0 = rcosθ ……….eq.1


2 = rsinθ …………eq.2


Squaring and adding eq.1 and eq.2, we get


4 = r2


Since r is always a positive no., therefore,


r = 2,


hence its modulus is 2.


now, dividing eq.2 by eq.1, we get,



Tanθ =


Since cosθ = 0, sinθ = 1 and tanθ = . Therefore the θ lies in first quadrant.


tanθ = , therefore


Representing the complex no. in its polar form will be
