solving $cisX=cisY$ equations












0














Part of a solution I came across with solving the following equation: $cis(nfrac{pi}{3})=1$. I converted it to be $cis(nfrac{pi}{3})=cis0$.



After trying to insert some values, I understood that the solution is $nfrac{pi}{3}=2pi k$ when $kinmathbb{Z}$ meaning $n=6k$.



Is it true to say that the solution of $cisX=cisY$ is $X=Y+2pi k$ when $kinmathbb{Z}$?

          Yes, it is. Two complex numbers are equal if and only if their real and imaginary parts coincide. Therefore, the equality



          $cos(X) + i sin(X) = cos(Y) + i sin(Y)$



          holds if and only if



          $cos(X) = cos(Y)$ and $sin(X) = sin(Y)$.



          Can you solve from here?

            Your answer is completely correct but the sine function is zero twice in a period.



            $$sin(X)=0$$
            $$X=0+kpi=kpi k∈Z$$
            so
            $$X=3k text{and not} 6k$$
