COMPLEX NUMBERS IN POLAR FORM

A complex number is represented as a point in a coordinate plane. The horizontal axis of the coordinate plane is called the real axis.

The vertical axis is called the imaginary axis.

The coordinate system is called the complex plane.

When we represent a complexnumber as a point in the complexplane, we say that we areplotting the complex number.
