If a = (cosθ + i sinθ), prove that .

Given: a = cosθ + isinθ

To prove:


Taking LHS,



Putting the value of a, we get




We know that,


1 + cos2θ = 2cos2θ


or


and


Using the above two formulas



Using,





Rationalizing by multiply and divide by the conjugate of






Putting i2 = -1, we get




We know that,


cos2 θ + sin2 θ = 1




= RHS


Hence Proved
