(B.9)
The first two forms are related by Eqs. (B.5) and (B.6). In Section B.3
we will derive Euler’s formula, which proves that the third form is also
equivalent to the first two.
Example B.1 Express the following complex numbers in polar and exponential form:
(a) z1 5 6 1 j8, (b) z2 5 6 2 j8, (c) z3 5 26 1 j8, (d) z4 5 26 2 j8.
Solution:
Notice that we have deliberately chosen these complex numbers to fall
in the four quadrants, as shown in Fig. B.2.
(a) For z1 5 6 1 j8 (1st quadrant),

r1 5 262 1 82 5 10, u1 5 tan 21 5 53.138

Hence, the polar form is 10l53.138 and the exponential form is 10e j53.138.
(b) For z2 5 6 2 j8 (4th quadrant),

r2 5 262 1 (28)2 5 10, u2 5 3608 2 tan 21 5 306.878

12l2608 5 12 cos(2608) 1 j12 sin(2608) 5 6 2 j10.39
Note that u 5 2608 is the same as u 5 3608 2 608 5 3008.

Answer: (a) 2103 2 j26, (b) 25.19 1 j 6.776, (c) 6.045 1 j11.53.
Solution:
(a) Since there are terms in polar and exponential forms, it may be best
to express all terms in polar form:
2 1 j5 5 222 1 52ltan21 5y2 5 5.385l68.28
(2 1 j5)(8e j108) 5 (5.385l68.28)(8l108) 5 43.08l78.28
2 1 j4 1 2l2408 5 2 1 j4 1 2 cos(2408) 1 j2 sin(2408)
5 3.532 1 j2.714 5 4.454l37.548
Thus,
(2 1 j5)(8e j108) 43.08l78.28
5 5 9.672l40.668
2 1 j4 1 2l2408 4.454l37.548
(b) We can evaluate this in rectangular form, since all terms are in that
form. But
j(3 2 j4)* 5 j(3 1 j4) 5 24 1 j3
(2 1 j)2 5 4 1 j4 2 1 5 3 1 j4

5 227 1 j14
Hence,
j(3 2 j4)* 24 1 j3 (24 1 j3)(227 2 j14)

Replacing u by 2u in Eq. (B.23) gives
