15 The Principal Argument when Multiplying Complex Numbers
When multiplying two complex numbers in polar form using the principal value of their arguments, is it always the case that adding these two arguments will give the principal value of the argument of the product?
This video illustrates the answer to this question using an animation created with GeoGebra software.
Viewers are invited to solve this question:
Find polar forms for these complex numbers using the principal value of the argument: (a) z = -1 - i (b) w = 1 - i (c) zw
This is followed by the full worked solution.
