Simplify
2i + 5
______
3i - 4
to the form ai + b.
----------------
(2i + 5)/(3i - 4)
Multiply by the conjugate of the DEN
= (2i + 5)*(3i + 4)/((3i - 4)*3i + 4))
= (6i^2 + 20 + 23i) / (9i^2 - 16)
= (-6 + 20 + 23i) / (-9 - 16)
= (14 + 23i)/(-25)
= (-14/25) - (23/25)i
---------------------------
Express z = -2 -5i in polar form.
Angle = arctan(-2/-5) = arctan(0.4)
Angle =~ 21.8 degs in Q3 --> 201.8 degs = 3.522 radians
--> (sqrt(29),3.522)
---------------------
Express z = 3 + 5i in exponential form.
