4-1.Complex numbers
normal
If $z$ is a complex number such that $| z | = 4$ and $arg \,(z) = \frac {5\pi }{6}$ , then $z$ is equal to
A
$ - 2\sqrt 3 + 2i$
B
$2\sqrt 3 + i$
C
$2\sqrt 3 - 2i$
D
$ - \sqrt 3 + i$
Solution
$r=4, \theta=5 \frac{\pi}{6}$
$z=x+i y=r(\cos \theta+i \sin \theta)$
hence
$z=-2 \sqrt{3}+2 i$
