This document discusses polar form and DeMoivre's theorem for complex numbers. It begins by introducing polar form, which represents a complex number z as z = r(cosθ + i sinθ) where r is the modulus and θ is the argument. It then states DeMoivre's theorem, which says that for any positive integer n, zn = rn(cosnθ + i sinnθ). An example calculates (−1 + √3i)12 by first converting to polar form and then applying DeMoivre's theorem.

Introduction
Although the solutions of linear congruences have been of interest for a very long time, they still remain somewhat pedagogically di cult. Because of the importance of linear congruences in fields such as public-key cryptosystems, new and innovative approaches are needed both to attract interest and to make them more accessible. While the potential for new ideas used in future research
is difficult to assess, some use may be found here. In this paper, the authors make use of the remodulization method developed in [1] as a vehicle to characterize the conditions under which solutions exist and then determine the solution space. The method is more efficient than those cited in the standard references. This novel approach relates the solution space of cx = a mod b to the Euler totient function for c rather than that of b, which allows one to develop an alternative and somewhat more efficient
approach to the problem of creating enciphering and deciphering keys in public-key cryptosystems.

nonzero complex number, then we let be the angle from the positive x-axis to the radial
Complex Number: a + bi line passing through the point (a, b) and we let r be the modulus of a ϩ bi. Thus,
Rectangular Form: (a, b)
Polar Form: (r, θ )
a ϭ r cos , b ϭ r sin , and r ϭ ͙a 2 ϩ b2
and we have a ϩ bi ϭ ͑r cos ͒ ϩ ͑r sin ͒i from which we obtain the following polar
form of a complex number.
Definition of Polar Form The polar form of the nonzero complex number z ϭ a ϩ bi is given by
of a Complex Number z ϭ r ͑cos ϩ i sin ͒
where a ϭ r cos , b ϭ r sin , r ϭ ͙a 2 ϩ b2, and tan ϭ b͞a. The number r is the
modulus of z and is called the argument of z.
2. 446 CHAPTER 8 COMPLEX VECTOR SPACES
REMARK: The polar form of z ϭ 0 is given by z ϭ 0͑cos ϩ i sin ͒ where is any
angle.
Because there are infinitely many choices for the argument, the polar form of a complex
number is not unique. Normally, we use values of that lie between Ϫ and , though on
occasion it is convenient to use other values. The value of that satisfies the inequality
Ϫ < ≤ Principal argument
is called the principal argument and is denoted by Arg(z). Two nonzero complex numbers
in polar form are equal if and only if they have the same modulus and the same principal
argument.
EXAMPLE 1 Finding the Polar Form of a Complex Number
Find the polar form of the following complex numbers. (Use the principal argument.)
(a) 1 Ϫ i (b) 2 ϩ 3i (c) i
Solution (a) We have a ϭ 1 and b ϭ Ϫ1, so r 2 ϭ 1 2 ϩ ͑Ϫ1͒2 ϭ 2, which implies that r ϭ ͙2.
From a ϭ r cos and b ϭ r sin , we have
a 1 ͙2 b 1 ͙2

The polar form adapts nicely to multiplication and division of complex numbers.
Suppose we are given two complex numbers in polar form
z1 ϭ r1 ͑cos1 ϩ i sin1͒ and z 2 ϭ r2 ͑cos2 ϩ i sin2͒.
Then the product of z1 and z 2 is given by
z1 z 2 ϭ r1 r2 ͑cos1 ϩ i sin1͒͑cos2 ϩ i sin2͒
ϭ r1r2 ͓͑cos 1 cos 2 Ϫ sin 1 sin 2͒ ϩ i ͑cos 1 sin 2 ϩ sin 1 cos 2͔͒.
Using the trigonometric identities
cos͑1 ϩ 2͒ ϭ cos 1 cos 2 Ϫ sin 1 sin 2
and
sin ͑1 ϩ 2͒ ϭ sin 1 cos 2 ϩ cos 1 sin 2
we have
z1z 2 ϭ r1r2 ͓cos͑1 ϩ 2͒ ϩ i sin͑1 ϩ 2͔͒.
This establishes the first part of the following theorem. The proof of the second part is left
to you. (See Exercise 63.)

This theorem says that to multiply two complex numbers in polar form, we multiply
moduli and add arguments, and to divide two complex numbers, we divide moduli and sub-
tract arguments. (See Figure 8.8.)

DeMoivre’s Theorem
Our final topic in this section involves procedures for finding powers and roots of complex
numbers. Repeated use of multiplication in the polar form yields
z ϭ r ͑cos ϩ i sin͒
z 2 ϭ r ͑cos ϩ i sin͒ r ͑cos ϩ i sin͒ ϭ r 2 ͑cos 2 ϩ i sin 2͒
z3 ϭ r ͑cos ϩ i sin ͒ r 2 ͑cos 2 ϩ i sin 2͒ ϭ r 3 ͑cos 3 ϩ i sin 3͒.
Similarly,
z4 ϭ r4 ͑cos 4 ϩ i sin 4͒
z 5 ϭ r 5͑cos 5 ϩ i sin 5͒.
This pattern leads to the following important theorem, named after the French mathemati-
cian Abraham DeMoivre (1667–1754). You are asked to prove this theorem in Chapter
Review Exercise 71.
Theorem 8.5 If z ϭ r ͑cos ϩ i sin ͒ and n is any positive integer, then
DeMoivre’s Theorem zn ϭ r n͑cos n ϩ i sin n͒.

Recall that a consequence of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra is that a polynomial
of degree n has n zeros in the complex number system. Hence, a polynomial like
p͑x͒ ϭ x6 Ϫ 1 has six zeros, and in this case we can find the six zeros by factoring and
using the quadratic formula.
x6 Ϫ 1 ϭ ͑x3 Ϫ 1͒͑x3 ϩ 1͒ ϭ ͑x Ϫ 1͒͑x 2 ϩ x ϩ 1͒͑x ϩ 1͒͑x 2 Ϫ x ϩ 1͒
Consequently, the zeros are

x ϭ Ϯ1, xϭ , and xϭ .

Each of these numbers is called a sixth root of 1. In general, we define the nth root of a
complex number as follows.
Definition of n th Root of The complex number w ϭ a ϩ bi is an nth root of the complex number z if
a Complex Number z ϭ w n ϭ ͑a ϩ bi͒n .
DeMoivre’s Theorem is useful in determining roots of complex numbers. To see how this
is done, let w be an nth root of z, where
w ϭ s͑cos  ϩ i sin ͒ and z ϭ r͑cos ϩ i cos ͒.
Then, by DeMoivre’s Theorem we have w n ϭ s n ͑cos n ϩ i sin n͒ and since w n ϭ z, it
follows that
s n ͑cos n ϩ i sin n͒ ϭ r͑cos ϩ i sin ͒.
Now, since the right and left sides of this equation represent equal complex numbers, we
n
can equate moduli to obtain sn = r which implies that s ϭ ͙r and equate principal
arguments to conclude that and n must differ by a multiple of 2. Note that r is a
n
positive real number and hence s ϭ ͙r is also a positive real number. Consequently, for
some integer k, n ϭ ϩ 2k, which implies that
ϩ 2k
ϭ .
n
Finally, substituting this value for  into the polar form of w, we obtain the result stated in
the following theorem.

roots are equally spaced along the circle, since successive nth roots have arguments that

We have already found the sixth roots of 1 by factoring and the quadratic formula. Try
solving the same problem using Theorem 8.6 to see if you get the roots shown in Figure

name—the nth roots of unity.
