is there a way to solve this without performing the tedious expansion of $(1+j)^8$?
here's the problem
$\text{Im}[(1+j)^8(x+jy)]$

$\text{Im}[(1+j)^8(x+jy)]$

Prove It said:Exponentiation of complex numbers is easiest if it's in its exponential polar form...
Drain Brain said:how to do that polar form?
I like Serena said:The polar form is:
$$1+j=\sqrt 2 \cdot e^{j \pi / 4}$$
Generally it is:
$$x+yj = r e^{j\phi}$$
where $x= r\cos \phi$ and $y=r\sin \phi$.

The imaginary part of a complex number is a number that is multiplied by the imaginary unit, i, to form the complex number. It is represented as b in the complex number a + bi.
To find the imaginary part of a complex number, simply identify the coefficient of i in the complex number. For example, in the complex number 3 + 5i, the imaginary part is 5i.
Yes, the imaginary part of a complex number can be negative. This would be represented as -bi in the complex number a - bi.
The imaginary part of a complex number helps us represent numbers that are not on the real number line. It is essential in solving equations involving complex numbers and is used in various fields such as engineering, physics, and mathematics.
The imaginary part of a complex number is used to plot points on the complex plane. The real part of the complex number represents the x-coordinate, while the imaginary part represents the y-coordinate. This allows us to graph complex numbers and visualize mathematical concepts such as rotations and transformations.
