Find the modulus of each of the following complex numbers and hence express each of them in polar form:
= i
Let Z = i = r(cosθ + isinθ)
Now , separating real and complex part , we get
0 = rcosθ ……….eq.1
1 = rsinθ …………eq.2
Squaring and adding eq.1 and eq.2, we get
1 = r2
Since r is always a positive no., therefore,
r = 1,
hence its modulus is 1.
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
