De Moivre is a famous French Mathematician from the1700's. He was a friend of Isaac Newton and was famous for his work with complex numbers, trigonometry and the theory of probability.De Moivre's theorem links complex numbers and trigonometry.Let z1 and z2 be two complex numbers. Then they can be represented as z1= r 1( Cos q 1 + i Sin q 1 ) z2= r 2( Cos q 2 + i Sin q 2 )Where z1= r 1 , z 2 = r 2 , arg( z 1) =q 1 . arg(z 2 ) =q 22 Now z1 z 2= r 1 r 2( Cos q 1 + i Sin q 1)( Cos q 2 + iSin q 2 ) r r轾 Cosq Cos q + i2 Sin q Sin q + iCos q Sin q + iSin q Cos q = 1 2臌 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2= r1 r 2臌轾 Cosq 1 Cos q 2 - Sin q 1 q 2 + i( Cos q 1 Sin q 2 + iSin q 1 Cos q 2 ) z1 z 2= r 1 r 2臌轾 Cos( q 1 + q 2) + iSin ( q 1 + q 2 ) \z1 z 2 = r 1 r 2 , arg( z 1 z 2) =( q 1 + q 2 )Inference\z1 z 2 = z 1 z 2 , arg( z 1 z 2) = arg( z 1) + arg( z 2 ) ie.,(1) The modulus of the product of two complex numbers is the product of their moduli.(2) The argument of the product of two complex numbers is the sum of their arguments.Using these facts we can find the square of a complex number (in polar form).Let z= r( Cos q+ iSin q) where z = r and arg(z) =qThen z2= r 2 ( Cos q+ iSin q)22 2 2 2 = r臌轾 Cosq+ i Sin q+ 2iSin q Cos q3 2 2 2 = r臌轾 Cosq- Sin q+ i2Sin q Cos q = r2 [ Cos 2q+ iSin 2 q]It is clear that z2= r 2 and arg( z 2 ) = 2 qThis concept can be used to find any positive integer power of z.De Moivre's TheoremLet n be any rational number, positive or negative, then(Cos +i Sin )n = Cos n + i Sin n ProofCase(i) when n is a positive integer. We prove the theorem by mathematical induction. i.e. we wish to show that(Cos  + iSin )n = Cos n  + i Sin n When n = 1 we have(Cos  + i Sin )1 = Cos 1 + i Sin 1 = Cos  + i SinWhich is true, so the theorem is true for n=1Now assume that the theorem is true for n=k, where k is a non-negative integer. Then we have.(Cos  + i Sin )k = Cos k  + iSin k4 Multiplying both sides by (Cos  + i Sin ) we get(Cos  + i Sin )k+1 = (Cos k + i Sink) (Cos  + i Sin)= (Cos (k) Cos  - Sin (k) Sin ) + i (Sin(k) Cos + Cos (k) Sin= Cos (k + ) + i Sin (k + )= Cos (k+1)  + i Sin (k+1) So, if the theorem is true for n=k, it is true for n=k+1. Hence by the principle of mathematical induction the theorem is true for all n.Case (ii) When n is a negative integerLet n = -m and m > 0Now (Cosq+ iSin q)n =( Cos q+ iSin q)- m1 = m (Cosq+ iSin q)1 = (Cos mq+ iSin m q)Cos mq- iSin m q = (Cos mq+ iSin m q)( Cos m q- iSin m q)Cos mq- iSin m q = Cos2 mq- i 2 Sin 2 m q5 Cos(mq ) - iSin m q = Cos2 mq+ Sin 2 m q= Cos( mq) - iSin (m q )= Cos(- m q) + iSin( - m q)= Cos nq+ iSin n qCase (iii) When ' n ' is a fraction p Let n = where p is any positive integer and q any non zero integer. qFrom case (1) we have (Cosq+ iSin q)p =( Cos p q+ iSin p q) p p = Cos qq+ iSin q q q q q 骣 p p = 琪Cosq+ iSin q 桫 q qNow taking qth root of both sides, (Cos  +Sin ) p/q has one of its value p p = Cosq + iSin q q q p n Now writing =n we get( Cos q+ iSin q) = Cos n q+ iSin n q qHence the theorem.6 Application of De Moivre's TheoremDe Moivre’s theorem is an important result in the field of complex numbers and it has practical applications.1.
