Special note about how lab assignments should be named
All labs should be saved according to the following
naming convention
lllllll_fffffff_Mat200_0z_Labxx.nb
where lllllll is the last name
fffffff is the first name
0z is the section number
xx is the lab number
for example
Conjura_Edward_Mat200_03_Lab01.nb
would be how Dr. Conjura

Assignment on Complex Numbers
Read class notes on Complex Numbers
Work the following problems:
1) If z = 1 - Sqrt(3)i then using DeMovre's Formula for raising
complex numbers in Polar (Trigonometric) Form to a power
calculate z^4 (e.g. z to the 4th power)
The correct answer to the above problem is 16[-(1/2) + (Sqrt(3)/2)i]
2) Given equation z^4 =16[-(1/2) + (Sqrt(3)/2)i], then using
DeMovre's Formula for finding the roots of complex numbers in Polar
(Trigonometric) Form, find all four complex solutions expressed
in rectangular form.
3) Given z = -2, then calculate z^5 using the methods of problem 1)
3) Given z^5 = -32, then find all solutions z using the mthods of
problem 2)
