Look at the sec graph to get x=(pi-B) or (B-pi)

Every year I see this question get posted. Here's when I asked it back in '08:

r(pi@/180)=150
rsin@=135

eliminate r, sin@=pi@/200
use cal to solve

Thanks heaps everyone!

I have another question related to Cplx Numbers - the question is attached. (just need help with part b)

Not sure how they came about the answers in (b)?

use de Moivre theorem
power increase by 1, modulus is sqrt2 times, arg increase by 45 deg

Ahhh I see, haven't seen de Moivre's formula yet - it's later on in the chapter. :\

Easy question, but:

Find the Argument of:

z = i - 1

Just wondering if it's best to do graphically/algebraically/whatever.

Thanks!

I draw a triangle and fill in unit lengths and work from there...

Well graphically let's you understand it better.
Draw it and use some basic trig.

How about simply via algebraic methods?
Not sure how to 'combine' the sin(theta) = Im(z) / |z| and cos(theta) = Re(z) / |z|

after some rearrangment or after you "combine" to two, the Argument can be more simply looked at as

So

There appears to be latex issues

Arg(z)=tan^-1[Im(z)/Re(z)]
        =tan^-1[-1/1]
        =3pi/4

In this context, all apparent algebraic methods are derived from geometry.

after some rearrangment or after you "combine" to two, the Argument can be more simply looked at as

So

There appears to be latex issues

Arg(z)=tan^-1[Im(z)/Re(z)]
        =tan^-1[-1/1]

Pixon, did you put:

Code: [Select]

before and after your equations?
