Answer:
See below for answers and explanations
Explanation:
Problem 1
To multiply two complex numbers in polar form, we use the rule
, so:
This means that C is the correct answer
Problem 2
We treat a complex plane almost exactly like a Cartesian plane where the x-axis is the real axis and the y-axis is the imaginary axis. Hence, point A is located at (3,-5) if this were a Cartesian plane, but since it is a complex plane, it would be read as 3-5i, making A the correct answer
Problem 3
The first part of the problem is really just using the distance formula, treating the real and imaginary parts of the complex numbers as coordinate points:
The second part of the problem is simple enough, again, treating the real and imaginary parts of the complex numbers as coordinate points:
Thus, A is the correct answer
Problem 4
Rectangular Form:
Polar/Trigonometric Form:
Conversion Rules:
Calculations:
Because the complex number is located in Quadrant III, then the reference angle is
counterclockwise from the negative x-axis, which is equal to
Thus, the complex number is trigonometric form is
, making C the correct answer
Problem 5
This is just a simple evaluation:
Treating the real and imaginary parts of the complex number as coordinate points, we can see that the best point is Q.
