11 The Polar Form of a Complex Number
This video extends the polar form representation of complex numbers on the unit circle (as covered in Video 10 of this series) to that of any complex number on the Complex Plane.
Illustrations are given of how the geometry of complex number is underpinned by the associated vector geometry. Examples are illustrated using addition and subtraction of complex numbers. Scaling of associated vectors is then used (i.e. multiplication of a vector by a real number scale factor) to generalise the polar form result for complex numbers on the unit circle (i.e. complex numbers with modulus of 1)
The 2nd half of the video involve detailed solutions of the following examples:
1. Represent -2 - i in polar form in two different ways
2.(a) Represent the complex number 3i in polar form
(b) Find a polar representation for -1 + i
(c) Represent the complex number 2√2(cos(-π/4) + i sin(-π/4)) in cartesian form
The viewer is encouraged to attempt these questions before watching the solutions.
