(3sqrt(3))/2 + (3)/(2)i
Use De Moivre's Theorem to find the square of this complex number. Express the result in standard form.
--------------------------
r = sqrt[(3sqrt(3)/2)^2 + (3/2)^2) = sqrt(27/4 + 9/4) = 6/2 = 3
-----------------------------
theta = arctan[3sqrt(3)/2 / (3/2)] = arctan(sqrt(3)) = 60 degrees
-----------------------------
(3sqrt(3))/2 + (3)/(2)i = 3cis(60)
-------------------
Squaring you get: [3cis(60)]^2 = 9cis(120)
Then 9cis(120) = 9[cos(120) + isin(120)]
= 9[-1/2 + i(sqrt(3)/2)]
---
= (-9/2) + i(9/2)sqrt(3)
