Find the square root of complex number 3 + 4i
Strategy: write down an equation satisfied by the square root, and solve it algebraically. Method: square root x+iy satisfies (x+iy) 2 = 3 + 4i. Expand: x 2 -y 2 +2xyi = 3+4i. Comparing coefficients gives: x...

Show that cosh^2(x)-sinh^2(x)=1
In exponential form, sinh^2(x)=1/4(e^2x+e^-2x-2), cosh^2(x)=1/4(e^2x+e^-2x+2). Therefore cosh^2(x)-sinh^2(x)=1/4(2-(-2))=4/4=1, as required.

Why is the argument of a+bi equal to arctan(b/a)?
Think about the point a+bi on the complex plane. Specifically, a is how far along the x (real) axis, and b is how far up the y (imaginary) axis the point is. If you draw a line connecting the origin and the ...

Find the first three non-zero terms of the Taylor series for f(x) = tan(x).
We have that the Taylor series of a function infinitely differentiable at a x = a is given by the expansion: f( x ) = f( a ) + f'( a )( x - a ) + f''( a )( x - a ) 2 /2! + f'''( a )( x - a ) 3 /3! + f (4) ( ...
