AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around solving a complex exponential equation involving powers and fractions. The initial poster attempts to use Euler's form for simplification but faces confusion regarding the arithmetic operations involved. Respondents clarify that the expression is not an equation and question the poster's intent, suggesting that they should first compute the powers before converting back to rectangular form. There is also a note on the inconsistency in the powers used in the fractions. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the need for clarity in mathematical operations and proper formulation of the problem.

Sir the Question is this
[(-1+√3)^2][/(1-i)^20] + [(-1-√3)^15][/(1+i)^20]
and i could solve it half using Euler' Form
[(2e^2∏/3i)^15][/(√2e^-∏/4i)^20] + [(2e^-2∏/3i)^15][/(√2e^∏/4i)^20]
please help fast

That's NOT an equation and I have no idea what you are trying to do with it. What do you mean by "solve" it? Just do the indicated arithmetic? Yes, you can do high powers by changing to "Eulers form" (or "polar form") but you haven't done the powers yet. Why not?

It is not easy to add in that form so after you have done the powers, change back to the original "rectangular" form.

(In the original form you have the numerator of the first fraction to the second power. Below you have it to the 15th power. Which is correct?)
 
sorry Sir First time post that's why a bit nervous
 
I picked up this problem from the Schaum's series book titled "College Mathematics" by Ayres/Schmidt. It is a solved problem in the book. But what surprised me was that the solution to this problem was given in one line without any explanation. I could, therefore, not understand how the given one-line solution was reached. The one-line solution in the book says: The equation is ##x \cos{\omega} +y \sin{\omega} - 5 = 0##, ##\omega## being the parameter. From my side, the only thing I could...
