Find the modulus of each of the following complex numbers and hence

Question: Find the modulus of each of the following complex numbers and hence express each of them in polar form: 2 Solution: Let $Z=-2=r(\cos \theta+i \sin \theta)$ Now, separating real and complex part, we get -2 = rcos. eq.1 0 = rsin eq.2 Squaring and adding eq.1 and eq.2, we get $4=r^{2}$ Since r is always a positive no, therefore, r = 2, Hence its modulus is 2. Now, dividing eq.2 by eq.1, we get, $\frac{r \sin \theta}{r \cos \theta}=\frac{0}{-2}$ Tan = 0 Since $\cos \theta=-1, \sin \theta=0...

Find the modulus of each of the following complex numbers and hence

Question: Find the modulus of each of the following complex numbers and hence express each of them in polar form: 4 Solution: Let Z = 4 = r(cos + isin) Now, separating real and complex part, we get 4 = rcos.eq.1 0 = rsineq.2 Squaring and adding eq.1 and eq.2, we get $16=r^{2}$ Since r is always a positive no., therefore, r = 4, Hence its modulus is 4. Now, dividing eq.2 by eq.1, we get, $\frac{r \sin \theta}{r \cos \theta}=\frac{0}{4}$ Tan = 0 Since cos = 1, sin = 0 and tan = 0. Therefore the li...

Question: If $a$ and $b$ are real numbers such that $a^{2}+b^{2}=1$ then show that a real value of $x$ satisfies the equation, $\frac{1-i x}{1+i x}=(a-i b)$ Solution: We have, $\frac{1-i x}{1+i x}=(a-i b)=\frac{a-i b}{1}$ Applying componendo and dividendo, we get $\frac{(1-i x)+(1+i x)}{(1-i x)-(1+i x)}=\frac{a-i b+1}{a-i b-1}$ $\Rightarrow \frac{1-i x+1+i x}{1-i x-1+i x}=\frac{a-i b+1}{a-i b-1}$ $\Rightarrow \frac{2}{-2 i x}=\frac{a-i b+1}{-(-a+i b+1)}$ $\Rightarrow i x=\frac{1-a+i b}{1+a-i b} ...
