Convert to Trigonometric Form |-7-9i|
Problem
Solution
Identify the complex number
z inside the absolute value bars asz=−7−9*i where the real part isa=−7 and the imaginary part isb=−9 Recall that the absolute value (or modulus) of a complex number
z=a+b*i is defined as|z|=√(,a2+b2) Substitute the values of
a andb into the modulus formula.
Square the components and sum them.
Simplify the expression under the radical.
Determine the trigonometric form of a constant real number. Since
√(,130) is a positive real number, its representation in trigonometric formr*(cos(θ)+i*sin(θ)) usesr=√(,130) andθ=0
