Edit: Sorry I had a brainfart. I mentioned the angle in Q2 when it should have been Q4.
I have fixed the mistake.

I'll do problem 1 to get you started.

2-2i = 2 + (-2)i
this is written in the form a+bi
a = 2
b = -2

r = modulus
r = sqrt(a^2+b^2)
r = sqrt((2)^2+(-2)^2)
r = sqrt(4+4)
r = sqrt(8)
r = sqrt(4*2)
r = sqrt(4)*sqrt(2)
r = 2*sqrt(2)

theta = argument
theta = arctan(b/a)
theta = arctan(-2/2)
theta = arctan(-1)
theta = -45°
Add 360 degrees to find a coterminal angle in the range 0 ≤ theta < 360
-45+360 = 315


Summary:
r = 2*sqrt(2)
theta = 315°

The polar point (r, theta) is (2*sqrt(2), 315°)

Another way you could express the answer would be to say the following
z = r*( cos(theta) + i*sin(theta) )
z = 2*sqrt(2)*( cos(315°) + i*sin(315°) )
z = 2*sqrt(2)*cis(315°)
where "cis" is shorthand for "cosine i sine"

1. Convert 2-2i to polar form

abs%282%29=abs%28-2%29, so the reference angle is 45 degrees, or pi/4 radians.

The given number has positive real part and negative imaginary part, so it is in quadrant IV. A 45 degree reference angle in quadrant IV is -45 degrees, or -pi/4 radians.

The modulus is sqrt%28%282%5E2%29%2B%28-2%29%5E2%29=sqrt%288%29=2sqrt%282%29.

ANSWERS:
(2*sqrt(2),-pi/4) or (2*sqrt(2))cis(-pi/4)
modulus: 2*sqrt(2)
argument: -pi/4

.

The number 2-2i is located in 4th quadrant, QIV.


Its modulus is  sqrt%282%5E2%2B2%5E2%29 = sqrt%284%2B4%29 = sqrt%288%29 = 2%2Asqrt%282%29.


Its argument is -45°  or  360°-45° = 315°.   

(You may use any of these two values, -45° or 315°, they both represent the correct arguments).



So, the polar form of a complex number 2-2i is

    2 - 2i = 2%2Asqrt%282%29%2A%28cos%28-45%5Eo%29+%2B+i%2Asin%28-45%5Eo%29%29.



It is the same as to say that the polar form of a complex number 2-2i is

    2 - 2i = 2%2Asqrt%282%29%2A%28cos%28315%5Eo%29+%2B+i%2Asin%28315%5Eo%29%29.



In "cis"-form,  it is the same as

    2 - 2i = 2%2Asqrt%282%29%2Acis%28-45%5Eo%29 = 2%2Asqrt%282%29%2Acis%28315%5Eo%29.



The modulus is 2%2Asqrt%282%29;  the argument  is -45° or 315°  or any other number of degrees 
which differs by a multiple of 360° from -45° or from 315°.


To make the argument unique, sometimes the conception of a PRINCIPAL ARGUMENT is used and the principal argument is taken: 

    it is the value of an argument in the range [0°,360°),

    i.e. 315° in this problem.
