To determine the complex number, we'll have to determine
the result of the sum of 2 quotients.
To calculate the sum
of 2 quotients that do not have a common denominator we'll have to calculate the
LCD(least common denominator) of the 2 ratios.
We notice
that LCD = (1+i)(1-i)
We notice also that the product
(1+i)(1-i) is like:
(a-b)(a+b) = a^2 -
b^2
We'll write instead of product the difference of
squares, where a = 1 and b = i.
LCD =
(1+i)(1-i)
LCD = 1^2 -
i^2
We'll write instead of i^2 =
-1
LCD = 1 - (-1)
LCD =
2
Now, we'll multiply the first ratio by (1+i) and the
second ratio by (1-i):
z = i(1+i)/2 + i(1-i)/
2
We'll remove the brackets:
z
= (i + i^2 + i - i^2)/2
We'll eliminate like
terms:
z = 2i/2
We'll
simplify:
z =
i
The result is a complex
number, whose real part is 0 and imaginary part is
1.
The algebraic form of the complex number
z is z = i.
The polar form of the complex number
is:
z = |z|(cos a + i*sin
a)
We'll calculate the modulus and the argument of
z.
|z| = sqrt(Re(z)^2 +
Im(z)^2)
|z| = sqrt(0^2 +
1^2)
|z| =
1
tan a =
y/x
tan a = 1/0 =
+infinite
a =
pi/2
The polar form of the
complex number is:
z =
(cos pi/2 + i*sin pi/2)
