    Euler's form

    AHL AA 1.13

    For reasons that can be explained after you learn Maclaurin Series, there is one more way to express complex numbers:

    z=rcisθ=reiθ📖


    For example, we can write z=−1=1⋅cis(π)=eiπ. This leads to the classic result

    eiπ+1=0🚫


    We call this Euler's Form because of the presence of Euler's Number e.

    Example

    Find z=3eiπ/6 in cartesian form.


    We have

    z=3cis(6π​)=3(cos6π​+isin6π​)=23√3​+23i​
