DeMoivres’sTheorem:
𝑧! = 𝑟! cos 𝑛𝜃 + 𝑟! sin(𝑛𝜃) 𝑖
or
𝑧! = 𝑟! cis 𝑛𝜃
SpecificallyDeMoivre’sTheoremreferstocalculatingPowersofcomplexnumbers,howeverbasedonDeMoivre’sTheorem,itfollowsthat;
𝑧!× 𝑧! = 𝑟!𝑟! cos 𝜃! + 𝜃! + 𝑟!𝑟! sin 𝜃! + 𝜃! 𝑖

Solutions:
1.
Set𝑧 = 𝑎 + 𝑏𝑖
Nowwehave;
𝑎 − 𝑏𝑖 𝑎 + 𝑏𝑖
= 𝑎! − 𝑏𝑖 !
= 𝑎! − 𝑏!𝑖!
= 𝑎! + 𝑏!
Since𝑎&𝑏 ∈ ℝ,thenclearly𝑎! + 𝑏! ∈ ℝ
QED.
2.
Set𝑧 = 𝑎 + 𝑏𝑖and𝑤 = 𝑐 + 𝑑𝑖
𝑅𝐻𝑆 = 𝑎 − 𝑏𝑖 𝑐 − 𝑑𝑖
= 𝑎𝑐 − 𝑎𝑑𝑖 − 𝑐𝑏𝑖 + 𝑏𝑑𝑖!
= 𝑎𝑐 − 𝑎𝑑 + 𝑏𝑐 𝑖 − 𝑏𝑑
= 𝑎𝑐 − 𝑏𝑑 − 𝑎𝑑 + 𝑏𝑐 𝑖
𝐿𝐻𝑆 = 𝑎 + 𝑏𝚤 𝑐 + 𝑑𝚤
= 𝑎𝑐 + 𝑎𝑑𝚤 + 𝑏𝑐𝚤 + 𝑏𝑑𝚤!
= 𝑎𝑐 + 𝑎𝑑 + 𝑏𝑐 𝚤 − 𝑏𝑑
= 𝑎𝑐 − 𝑏𝑑 + 𝑎𝑑 + 𝑏𝑐 𝚤
= 𝑎𝑐 − 𝑏𝑑 − 𝑎𝑑 + 𝑏𝑐 𝑖
= 𝑅𝐻𝑆

3.
Set𝑧 = 𝑎 + 𝑏𝑖
Nowwehave;
𝑎 + 𝑏𝑖 ! + 𝑎 − 𝑏𝑖 ! = 0
𝑎! + 2𝑎𝑏𝑖 + 𝑏𝑖 ! + 𝑎! − 2𝑎𝑏𝑖 + 𝑏𝑖 ! = 0
2𝑎! + 2 𝑏𝑖 ! = 0
𝑎! + 𝑏𝑖 ! = 0
𝑎! + 𝑏!𝑖! = 0
𝑎! − 𝑏! = 0
𝑎 + 𝑏 𝑎 − 𝑏 = 0
byNFL,wehave
𝑎 = −𝑏, 𝑜𝑟 𝑎 = 𝑏
similarlywecouldsay
𝑏 = −𝑎, 𝑜𝑟 𝑏 = 𝑎
Wecannowseeoursolutionfor𝑧;
𝑧 = 𝑎 − 𝑎𝑖 𝑜𝑟 𝑧 = 𝑎 + 𝑎𝑖
