If z1 = r1 (cosθ1+isinθ1) and z2 = r2
(cosθ2+ isinθ2) are two complex
numbers, then
z1z2 = r1 r2 [cos(θ1+θ2) + isin(θ1+ Yes ma’am.

C. Lesson Proper
Trigonometric form provides a
convenient way to conclude both
powers and roots of complex
numbers.
If z = r(cosθ+isinθ), then the
multiplication formula shows that
z2 = r2 [cos( θ+θ )+isin (θ+θ)¿
= r2 (cos2 θ+isin 2θ ¿
Similarly,
z3 = z2 ∙ z = r2∙ r[cos
( 2 θ+θ ) +isin(2 θ+θ)¿
= r3 (cos3 θ+isin 3 θ ¿
Repeated application of the
multiplication formula proves this
theorem
De Moivre’s Theorem
For any number z = r (cosθ+isinθ)
and any positive integer n, zn = rn
(cosnθ+isinnθ).
Example: compute (−√ 3+i¿ 5
First we will transform this in
polar form.
We already solve the polar form
of (−√ 3+i¿ last meeting. Who 5π 5π

of this? Yes Joshua.
So by De Moivre’s Theorem we
have:
