Whoa!

Let start with basic


stuff first!!!
Introduction Play with it How can we use it
What is Complex number Converting between polar How we use it in real life
Structure of it and rectangular form Example of what we use in
Basics of it Polar graphing real life

How complex is
complex number?

It's not!
What is a form of complex number?
A complex number can be expressed in the form:

6
V

Polar Form Rectangular Form

Make sure that you already start Manipulate the equation to


with simplify rectangular form obtain terms so that the
and find a and b rectangular-polar substitutions
can be used

1 2 3 4

Rewrite any Substitute and


trigonometric functions simplify the
in terms of cos, sin, tan equation

Mechanical Systems
Mechanical systems are
mostly devices that rotate in
a circular path so by using
Cartesian Coordinates will
make the mechanical systems
work easier.
Example of polar
coordinates used in real life
Audio technicians use graphs of polar
coordinates to describe the functions of
microphone

The equation use in a typical Complex Number of
cardioid microphone is r=.5+.5cosθ. Microphone
To test and optimize their products accurately,
engineers who design hearing aids use polar
coordinates to help them.
Example of polar coordinates used in real life

Things that turn in a plane around another thing it might make sense to describe
the situation with polar coordinates. Such as

- Astronomical movements

- Pendulums

- Spinning things and spinning tops

- Everything that is described with complex numbers can profit from their
polar version

B.Eng Electrical and Electronics As an electrical engineer, I can


Engineering, Cardiff University (1990) confidently say that we did a LOT of
complex number Maths during my degree.
It’s used, for example, when working with
AC electricity because the voltage and
current aren’t always in phase, and using
complex numbers helps with that. We did
complex algebra, calculus, trigonometry
and all sorts of stuff with complex
numbers. It was great fun. From memory,
it was probably just the default Maths.
Real numbers were just a special case of
complex numbers.
Example in real life

An alternate coordinate system where


the two variables are r and θ instead
of x and y.
