Thought-Process to Discover Knowledge

Welcome to nubtrek.

Books and other education websites provide "matter-of-fact" knowledge. Instead, nubtrek provides a thought-process to discover knowledge.

In each of the topic, the outline of the thought-process, for that topic, is provided for learners and educators.

Read in the blogs more about the unique learning experience at nubtrek.

User Guide

To make best use of nubtrek, understand what is available.

nubtrek is designed to explain mathematics and science for young readers. Every topic consists of four sections.

nub,

trek,

jogger,

exercise.

User Guide

nub is the simple explanation of the concept.

This captures the small-core of concept in simple-plain English. The objective is to make the learner to think about.

User Guide

trek is the step by step exploration of the concept.

Trekking is bit hard, requiring one to sweat and exert. The benefits of taking the steps are awesome. In the trek, concepts are explained with exploratory questions and your thinking process is honed step by step.

User Guide

jogger provides the complete mathematical definition of the concepts.

This captures the essence of learning and helps one to review at a later point. The reference is available in pdf document too. This is designed to be viewed in a smart-phone screen.

User Guide

exercise provides practice problems to become fluent in the concepts.

This part does not have much content as of now. Over time, when resources are available, this section will have curated and exam-prep focused questions to test your knowledge.

Exponent of a complex number is explained.

Starting on learning "Exponent of a complex number". ;; In this page, Exponent of a complex number is explained.

Given z_1 = a_1+ib_1 and z_2 = a_2+ib_2, Can the exponent z_1^z_2 be written in a+ib form?

• No. Exponent to the power of complex number is not possible
• Yes. By converting to polar form z_1 = r e^(i theta).

The answer is 'Yes. By converting to polar form z_1 = r e^(i theta)'

Given z_1 = a_1+ib_1 and z_2 = a_2+ib_2, exponent
z_1^z_2
quad quad = (r_1e^(i theta_1) )^(a_2+ib_2)
quad quad = r_1^a_2 
quad quad quad quad xx r_1^(ib_2)
quad quad quad quad xx e^(i theta_1 a_2)
quad quad quad quad xx e^(i theta_1 i b_2)

quad quad = r_1^a_2 
quad quad quad quad xx e^(ib_2 ln r_1) (
quad quad quad quad xx e^(i theta_1 a_2)
quad quad quad quad xx e^(- theta_1 b_2)

quad quad = r_1^a_2 e^(- theta_1 b_2) 
quad quad quad quad xx e^(i(b_2 ln r_1 + theta_1 a_2))

The result is in the polar form and can be converted to coordinate form.

Given z_1 = a_1+ib_1 and z_2 = a_2+ib_2, Can the root root(z_2)(z_1) be computed in a+ib form?

• No. root to a complex number is not possible
• Yes. By considering root as power of (1/z_2)

The answer is 'Yes. By considering root as power of (1/z_2)'

Given z_1 = a_1+ib_1 and z_2 = a_2+ib_2, root
root(z_2)(z_1)
quad quad = z_1^(1/z_2)
quad quad = z_1^(bar(z_2)/(|z_2|^2))
By following the rules of exponent of a complex number, the root can be solved.

Given z1 = a1+i b1 and z2 = a2+i b2, Can the exponent z1 to the power z2 be written in a+i b form?
no;exponent;power
No. Exponent to the power of complex number is not possible
Yes. By converting to polar form z1 = r e power i theta.
The answer is 'Yes. By converting to polar form z1 = r e power i theta'.
Given z1 = a1+i b1 and z2 = a2+i b2, exponent ;; z1 power z2 ;; equals r1 e power i theta1 power a2+i b2 ;; equals r1 power a2 into r1 power i b2 into e power i theta1 a2 into e power i theta1 i b2 ;; equals r1 power a2 into e power i b2 ln r1 into e power i theta1 a2 into e power - theta1 b2 ;; equals r1 power a2 e power - theta1 b2 into e power i b2 ln r1 + theta1 a2 ;; The result is in the polar form and can be converted to coordinate form.
Given z1 = a1+i b1 and z2 = a2+i b2, Can the root z2 root of z1 be computed in a+i b form?
no;not;possible
No. root to a complex number is not possible
yes;s;considering;1
Yes. By considering root as power of one by z2
The answer is "Yes. By considering root as power of one by z2"
Given z1 = a1+i b1 and z2 = a2+i b2, ;; z2 root of z1 ;; equals z1 to the power 1 by z2 ;; equals z1 to the power conjugate of z2 by mod of z2 squared. ;; By following the rules of exponent of a complex number, the root can be solved.
