The absolute value of a complex number is also called the
modulus of the complex number and it can be found from rectangular
form:
z = x + i*y (rectangular
form)
Modulus: |z| = sqrt(x^2 +
y^2)
We'll identify the real part and the imaginary part of
z:
x = Re(z) = 2
y = Im(z) =
(sqrt 3)/2
Now, we'll calculate the
modulus:
|z| = sqrt[2^2 +
(sqrt3)^2/4]
|z| = sqrt
(4+3/4)
|z| = sqrt
(19/4)
|z| = sqrt
(19)/2
The modulus of the
given complex number is |z| = sqrt
(19)/2.
The argument of the complex number
is the angle to x axis.
arg(z) =
a
tan a =
y/x
tan a = (sqrt
3)/4
a = arctan[(sqrt 3)/4] +
k*pi
arg(z) = arctan[(sqrt
3)/4] + k*pi
