I have to rewrite the following to polar form: re^iθ (θ is in radian).

  • 2∠30°

I think that I have to use this: r*cos(θ) + i * sin(θ)

 

Please help!

I think it is 

 

2eiπ/6=2(cosπ6+isinπ6)=2(32+i12)=3+i

You do not need this pic to answer the question but I think it may help you to understand

Thanks for the help.

I just dont understand why you use π/6?

How do you know that θ = π/6?

θ=30degrees180degrees=πradians$Thisissomethingyouneedtoknow$so1degree=π180radiansso30degrees=30×π180radians30degrees=π6radians

 

Does that answer your question ?
