Chapter 6 - Section 6.5 - Complex Numbers in Polar Form; DeMoivre's Theorem - Exercise Set - Page 767: 38

Answer

The multiplication of the complex numbers in the polar form is $28\left( \cos 40{}^\circ +i\sin 40{}^\circ \right)$.

Work Step by Step

Here, $\begin{align} & {{z}_{1}}=4\left( \cos 15{}^\circ +i\sin 15{}^\circ \right) \\ & {{z}_{2}}=7\left( \cos 25{}^\circ +i\sin 25{}^\circ \right) \\ \end{align}$ Therefore, $\begin{align} & {{z}_{1}}\times {{z}_{2}}=7\times 4\left( \cos \left( 15{}^\circ +25{}^\circ \right)+i\sin \left( 15{}^\circ +25{}^\circ \right) \right) \\ & =28\left( \cos 40{}^\circ +i\sin 40{}^\circ \right) \end{align}$ The multiplication of the complex numbers in the polar form is $28\left( \cos 40{}^\circ +i\sin 40{}^\circ \right)$
