Find the modulus of each of the following complex numbers and hence express each of them in polar form:
Let Z = - + 1 = r(cosθ + isinθ)
Now , separating real and complex part , we get
1 = rcosθ ……….eq.1
= 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,
Since ,
and
. therefore the θ lies in the fourth quadrant.
Tanθ = , therefore θ =
Representing the complex no. in its polar form will be
Z = 2{cos + isin
