What is the exponential form for complex numbers?

Answer 1

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)
