Answer

$$ - 10 + 0i$$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & \left[ {5\left( {\cos 150^\circ + i\sin 150^\circ } \right)} \right]\left[ {2\left( {\cos 30^\circ + i\sin 30^\circ } \right)} \right] \cr & = \left( 5 \right)\left( 2 \right)\left( {\cos \left( {150^\circ + 30^\circ } \right) + i\sin \left( {150^\circ + 30^\circ } \right)} \right) \cr & = 10\left( {\cos \left( {180^\circ } \right) + i\sin \left( {180^\circ } \right)} \right) \cr & = 10\left( { - 1 + i\left( 0 \right)} \right) \cr & = - 10 + 0i \cr} $$
