Evaluate the following in x+iy form.
i3+i
Homework Equations
i=rei\Theta
The Attempt at a Solution
i=rei\frac{pi}{2}
i3+i = i3*ii
(-i)(ei2\frac{pi}{2})
=-ie-\frac{pi}{2}
=-.2079i
I understand how it all works out except \frac{pi}{2}. I can't figure out how they got \frac{pi}{2} in the first place. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
