If the polar coordinates of a complex number are (r,a) where r is the distance from the origin and a the angle made with the x axis, then the cartesian coordinates of the point are: x = r*cos(a) and y = r*sin(a)
A COMPLEX NUMBER CAN BE CONVERTED INTO A POLAR FORM LET US TAKE COMPLEX NUMBER BE Z=a+ib a is the real number and b is the imaginary number THEN MOD OF Z IS SQUARE ROOT OF a2+b2 MOD OF Z CAN ALSO BE REPRESENTED BY r . THEN THE MOD AMPLITUDE FORM IS r(cos@Very interesting, but -i is not a complex no. it is a simple (imaginary) no. with no real part.
For a complex number in polar form with Magnitude, and Angle: (Magnitude)*(cos(angle) + i*sin(angle)) will give the form: a + bi
It isn't clear in what form you have the complex number. But you can change it from the form (absolute value, angle) to the form (real part + imaginary part) using the polar-rectangular conversion available on scientific calculators (and the other way round, with the rectangular-polar conversion). Note that a complex number in the form (real part + imaginary part) is most appropriate for addition and subtraction, while a complex number of the form (absolute value, angle) is most appropriate for multiplication or division, so depending on the operations, you may want to convert back and forth several times.
Exponential form is similar to 'polar form'. Call the Magnitude A, and the angle θ .Then the number is represented as A*eiθ (θ in radians). To convert to rectangular form, use Euler's formula:eiθ = cos(θ) + i*sin(θ)So the complex number A*eiθ = A*cos(θ) + A*i*sin(θ)

"a + bi" is a common way to write a complex number. Here, "a" and "b" are real numbers.Another common way to write a complex number is in polar coordinates - basically specifying the distance from zero, and an angle.

You can certainly multiply and divide with the rectangular form, but it is somewhat easier in polar form. This is especially relevant if you want to extend to more complicated operations, such as higher powers or taking roots. As for the polar form, any method to add and subtract them directly would probably be quite complicated, and directly or indirectly involve many of the same calculations that are done in converting from polar to rectangular, and back. Try it! (That is, try to deduce the formulas for adding two complex numbers in polar form.)
A complex number can be thought of as a vector with two components, called the "real part" (usually represented on the horizontal axis), and the "imaginary part" (usually represented on the vertical axis). You can also express the complex number in polar form, that is, with a a length and an angle.
