See my solution below.
Actually I just taught this topic to my students last week. I am sure all my students understand how to solve this kind of questions. If someone out there is interested in coming to Balwyn to learn maths with me then welcome!

Regards
James.

I wish you did. It's not part of the VCE syllabus, but it's EXTREMELY similar to solving for the polar form of a complex number.
