In all cases
 The quadrants of the complex plane (called
regions I, II, III and IV) are illustrated in the
figure below:

● θ = Arg z (principal value of the

argument, which by convention is taken
to lie in the range −π < θ ≤ π. That is,
arg z = Arg z + 2πn, n = 0, ±1, ±2, ±3, ··· ,
−π < Arg z ≤ π.
● 𝐴𝑟𝑔 𝑧 = arc𝑡𝑎𝑛 (𝑦/𝑥)
● Always expressed in radians.
● |𝑧| = r = √(𝑥^(2 ) + 𝑦^2)

 Euler’s Theorem
According to Euler, we should regard the
complex exponential e^it as related to the
trigonometric functions cos(t) and sin(t) via the
following inspired definition: e^it = cis(t) where
as usual in complex numbers i^2= −1.(1) The
justification of this notation is based on the
formal derivative of both sides, namely d/dt
(e^it) = i(e^it) = i cos t + i 2 sin t = i cos t − sin t
since i^2 = −1 d/dt (cos t + i sin t) = − sin t + i
cos t since i is a constant. along with the initial
value of 1 for both sides at t = 0, assuming e 0 = 1
holds for complex values too.
 The first step is to
convert the complex
number a+bi into the

Examples

•Use De Moivre's Theorem to compute (1 + i)^12

= 64(cos π + i sin π)
= 26 (cos 3π + i sin 3π)
= (√2)^12 (cos π/4 + i sin π/4)^12
(1 + i)^12= [√2 (cos π/4 + i sin π/4)]^12
