If z1=2(cos4π+isin4π) and z2=3(cos3π+isin3π) , then ∣z1z2∣ is equal to
A. 6
B. 2
C. 6
D. 2+3
Solution
In this question we have been given z1=2(cos4π+isin4π) and z2=3(cos3π+isin3π)We have the value of ∣z1z2∣.
we can see that the value is in mode and the above expression is in the form of
z=x+iy . This is the form of a complex number. So if we have to find the value of
∣z∣ , we can write the expression as the root of the square of the real number which is x and the root of the square of the imaginary number which is y, i.e.
∣z∣=x2+y2 . So we will use this formula to solve the above question.
Complete step by step solution:
Here we have
z1=2(cos4π+isin4π)
And,
z2=3(cos3π+isin3π) ,
In the first term, we have real number i.e.
x=cos4π and the imaginary number i.e.
y=sin4π
We can also write the term as
z1=(2cos4π+2isin4π)
So by applying the formula we can write
∣z1∣=(2cos4π2)+(2sin4π)2
We can take the common factor out, so we have
∣z1∣=(2)2(cos4π)2+(sin4π)2
We know that
sin2θ+cos2θ=1 , so by applying this we can write
∣z1∣=2×1=2
Now we will solve
z2=3(cos3π+isin3π) ,
Here we have real number i.e.
x=cos3π and the imaginary number i.e.
y=sin3π
We can also write the term as
z2=(3cos3π+3isin3π)
Similarly as above applying the formula we can write
∣z2∣=(3cos3π2)+(3sin3π)2
We can take the common factor out, so we have
∣z2∣=(3)2(cos3π)2+(sin3π)2
Now by applying the identity of
sin2θ+cos2θ=1 , we can write
∣z2∣=3×1=3
Now we can put the values together and we have
∣z1z2∣=2×3=6
Hence the correct option is (C) 6.
Note:
We should note that the value of i is −1 .
This is the imaginary number, also called iota. So if we square the value of iota i.e. i2 , we get the value −1×−1=−1 .
So it gives us i2=−1 .
