Homework Statement



o07192.png

I have this equation and need to find |F|2 (which should be real). I thought you did this by multiplying by the complex conjugate which was just replacing all i with -i, but this doesn't seem to work. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

You might need to apply Euler's formula and then apply F= A/B => |F| = |A|/|B|.
