 What is
Modulus?
Modulus is the length of
the line segment drawn
from the origin of the
cartesian graph to the
point. We label r for “radius.”
Formula finding r
→ r = √ a² + b²

z = r(cosθ + isinθ) , r is the modulus

 The History of
Modulus
Modulus is the diminutive from the
Latin word modus meaning measure
or manner. It, or its plural moduli,
may refer to the scalar fields for
which the potential energy function
has continuous families of global
minima
 Modulus example in reality

For example, when counting the time of day using a

12-hour clock obtained by adding four hours to 8:00,
the answer, 1:00, by adding time by taking 8+4=1
(mod 12)
 What is
Argument?
 The argument is the
angle made by the
vector of your complex
number and the positive
real axis.

The History of Argument

It written by experts in the field, this volume

presents a comprehensive investigation into the
relationship between argumentation theory and
the philosophy of mathematical practice.
