Rectangular coordinates are easy, each vector has an $x$ and $y$-coordinate, given by its projections onto the real and imaginary axis.

For -example, \[ +example, $ \left(\begin{array}{c} 3\\ -2\end{array}\right)=3(\rightarrow)+2(\uparrow)=3+2i\] -and\[ +2\end{array}\right)=3(\rightarrow)+2(\uparrow)=3+2i$ +and $ \overset{2}{\nwarrow}=\left(\begin{array}{c} -\sqrt{2}\\ -\sqrt{2}\end{array}\right)=-\sqrt{2}(\rightarrow)+\sqrt{2}(\uparrow)=-\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{2}i\] +\sqrt{2}\end{array}\right)=-\sqrt{2}(\rightarrow)+\sqrt{2}(\uparrow)=-\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{2}i$ -Polar coordinates represent each complex number by its magnitude and -argument, its radius and angle (in radians).

The familiar angle addition formula from trigonometry now follows -from the distributive law applied to unit vectors.\[ -\cos(\theta+\phi)+i\sin(\theta+\phi)=(\cos\theta+i\sin\theta)(\cos\phi+i\sin\phi)=\cos\theta\cos\phi-\sin\theta\sin\phi+i(\cos\theta\sin\phi+\sin\theta\cos\phi)\] +from the distributive law applied to unit vectors. +$\cos(\theta+\phi)+i\sin(\theta+\phi)=(\cos\theta+i\sin\theta)(\cos\phi+i\sin\phi)=\cos\theta\cos\phi-\sin\theta\sin\phi+i(\cos\theta\sin\phi+\sin\theta\cos\phi)$ In the workshop session, you'll use a similar trick to compute triple and quadruple angle formulas, for $\sin$ and $\cos$, deriving De Moivre's theorem. - -\subsection*{Functions} +## Functions The most basic transformations of the complex plane are given by multipling by some fixed complex number $\rho=r(\cos\theta+i\sin\theta)=a+bi$, @@ -159,10 +128,10 @@ b\end{array}\right)$ itself, and the second column is the image of $i=\left(\beg 1\end{array}\right)$, which is $\rho$ rotated by $90^{\circ}$, which has coordinates $\left(\begin{array}{c} -b\\ -a\end{array}\right)$.
