For polar form you need to find the modulus (length of the vector) and the argument (angle of the vector) and present in form rcis(Arg) or re^Argi

start with the modulus r=sqrt(a^2 +b^2)
                                     =sqrt(-2^2 +2^2)
                                     = sqrt(4+4)
                                     =sqrt(8)
                                     =2sqrt(2)

next the argument, firstly arg=tan(b/a)
                                              = tan(2/2)
                                              =tan(1)
                                             =pi/4 .     (exact values table)
Now consider the quadrant the complex number is in, as it is (-2,2) it is in the second quadrant and as such your Arg value is:
Arg=pi-arg
     = pi-pi/4
     = 3pi/4

add it all together and your complex number in polar form is:
2sqrt2cis(3pi/4)

note: cis is short hand for cos(x)+isin(x), it is possible your tutor would rather you use the complex exponential form which is simply re^Argi and your answer would look like:
2sqrt2e^(3pi/4)i

Also notice the difference between arg and Arg as this often slips students up and always present Arg in prinicple argument form ie -pi<Arg<pi

Hopefully this has been clear enough and good luck

2+42/-2-5(-3)  Multiply -5 and -3.

2+42/-2+15 Now, add the non fraction numbers. (2 and 15)

17+42/-2 Here, you want to reduce the fraction if you can, and yes, you can. Find the divisible number that is the lowest one that both can be evenly divided by. For this problem, it’s -2.

17-21. And from here, its easy. Just a simple subtraction problem.

-4 should be the correct answer.

Find the value of x in the triangle shown below.<br> a. x=80<br> b. x=48<br> c. x= 32<br> d. x=12
yulyashka [42]

THEOREM:

• <u>Pythagorean theorem</u>:— In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides.

ANSWER:

By pythagorean property,

x² = 4² + 8²

x² = 16 + 64

x² = 80

x = √80 units.

So, <u>Correct choice</u> - [A] √80 units.

insens350 [35]
First estimate the square root of 10, about 3.16
and then the square root of 47, about 6.85
now what are the integers in between 3.16 and 6.85:
4,5,6
now add them all 
4+5+6
=15
Hope this helps.
