Complex Multiplication

Polar or Exponential Representation of z Consider the Taylor Series for the functions:

Then using in radian measure

and  .

Note:  When this equation demonstrates that . Complex Multiplication: Algebraically: If and then . Example: If then . It is easier to understand complex multiplication geometrically using the polar or the exponential representation (in radian measure) and the addition formulae for trigonometric functions:           or more simply using in radian measure:

 

Example: If then
