But these are just Formulas 3 and 5 in a different notation.
We conclude this section with a useful formula for in polar notation. If
then
Recalling the trigonometric identities (13)
we can rewrite 13 as
or, equivalently, (14)
(15)
In the special case where , the polar form of z is , and 14 yields the formula
