- Complex roots and power
- $\fcolorbox{white}{yellow}{$a^b = e^{b\ln a} $} $ Don't forget the $2k\pi i$ from $\ln a$
- Examples:
(a) Writing polar represenation $ a = r e^{i(\theta + 2k\pi)}$, (b) $\ln a = \Ln\; r + i(\theta+2 k\pi)$, (c) plug in and doing algebra
- Inverse trignomitry function
- $\fcolorbox{white}{yellow}{$z = \arccos w \m $ if $\m w =\cos z = \frac{e^{iz}+e^{-iz}}2$}$
- Example:
Solve $\arccos w$ (with $w$ a given number) (a) $u = e^{iz}$; (b) $\cos z = \frac{e^{iz}+e^{-iz}}2 = \frac{ u+ \frac1u}2 = w$;
(c) Solve quodratic equaiton $2 u w = u^2 +1$, or $u^2 - 2u w +1 =0$;
(d) Solve $u$ and then $z$;
