Outcomes
In this lesson you will learn
- to evaluate powers of complex numbers written in polar form
- De Moivre's Theorem
- to use De Moivre's Theorem to simplify expressions and verify hypotheses
By the end of this section students will be able to:
- apply operations on complex numbers both in rectangular and polar form
- translate between polar and rectangular representation
- develop and apply De Moivre's Theorem for powers
Prerequisites
To be successful in this lesson, it would be helpful to know the following:
- complex numbers
- modulus
- argument
- r cis
- coterminal angles
- operations with complex numbers
- converting complex numbers in rectangular form to polar form, and vice versa
