Question

Rewrite the complex number in rectangular form, a + bi.

 

z=7cis(pi/6)=?

 

A. 7+7i

B. ((7(sqrt 3))/2)+(7/2)i

c. (sqrt 3/2)+(1/2)i

D. (7/2)+(7/2)i

Answer 1

z = 7[cos(π/6) + i sin(π/6)]

 

cos(π/6) = (√3)/2

 

sin(π/6) = 1/2

 

z = 7[(√3)/2 + i(1/2)]

 

z = 7(√3)/2 + (7/2)i

 

The correct answer is (B).
