Exponential form of complex numbers
Définition :
We denote by
the complex number of modulus
equal to
If the complex number
is of modulus
and of argument
we have:
With this notation, the calcultation rules become:
If
Assuming
non zero,
Remarque :
The algebraic form of complex numbers is more adapted to calculations of sums and substractions, whereas the trigonometric and exponential forms are more adapted to calculations of multiplications and divisions.
