Find the modulus and argument of the complex number
Solution:
We have , = × = = = - Let - ... (i) and = r sin θ ... (ii) Squaring and adding (i) and (ii), we get = = = ⇒ = ⇒ r = Substituting the value of r in (i) and (ii), we get cos θ = sin θ = ⇒ cos θ = , sin θ = ⇒ cos θ = - cos , sin θ = sin Here, cos θ < 0 , sin θ > 0. ∴ θ lies in second quadrant. θ = π - = ∴ Modulus is and argument is
