Polar Form of Complex Numbers

Polar Form of Complex Numbers is a part of the VCE Specialist Maths topic Algebra and subtopic Mod-Arg form. In this post, we will prove the identities involving modulus and argument, in mod-arg form, and look at how to write complex numbers in polar form. We also look at how to complete multiplications and divisions of numbers in the polar form. 

The Polar Form.

This following video explains how to write a complex number in polar form.

What is the Modulus and Argument?

The following video introduces the modulus and argument for complex numbers on the Argand diagram.

This next video explains how to multiply numbers in their polar form.
