Write the complex number Z=1/2+sqrt(3)/2j both as a function involving cos & sin, and as a function involving an exponential.

|Z| = sqrt(1/2^2 + (sqrt(3)/2)^2) = 1 arg(Z) = arctan((sqrt(3)/2)/(1/2)) = pi/3 Z = cos(pi/3) + jsin(pi/3) Z = e^j(pi/3) Apologies for the use of sqrt(), I have no way yet of using the symbol on my laptop
