SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on using De Moivre's theorem to express powers in polar form. The user demonstrates the application of the theorem by calculating P as 4*[cos(30°) + i*sin(30°)] and subsequently finding P²/10 as 1.6*[cos(60°) + i*sin(60°)]. It is clarified that there is no need to divide the angle of 60° by 10, maintaining the final argument as 60°.
