SOLUTION OF PROBLEM: 7

Let z and w are two non-zero compex numbers such that |z| =|w| and arg(z) + arg(w)=180(degree), then z is
SOLUTION: we can have two different ways to approach the solutions
CONVENTIONAL METHOD: 
Let z = r e(ip) , where r is |z| and p is arg(z)
also, w = r e(iq), where r is |w| and q is ar(w)
as given |z|=|w| and p + q =180(degree), we can write w = r e(i(180-p))= r(cos(180-p)+i sin(180-p))
w = r(-cos(p) +i sin(p)) = -r( cos(p) - isin(p)) = -1/z =-z( bar).
Hence, w = -z(bar)
NOTE: e(ip) is e to the power ip.

GRAPHICAL METHOD:

  1. I think that the answer given by prabhanjan was a particular answer,whereas for these problems we need 2 write the generalised answer as givwn in this post.
