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

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)
