Exercise · ZW-COMPLEX-TRIGONOMETRIC-FUNCTIONS-005 · ★☆☆ Basic
Simplify \(\sin(z+\pi)\).
Choose one option.
Show answer
- A. \(-\sin z\)
Explanation
Since \(e^{i\pi}=-1\), \(e^{i(z+\pi)}=-e^{iz}\) and \(e^{-i(z+\pi)}=-e^{-iz}\); both terms change sign, so \(\sin(z+\pi)=-\sin z\).
Review the concept: Complex trigonometric functions
The sine \(\sin z\) and cosine \(\cos z\) of a complex number \(z\) are the functions that extend the real ones through the complex exponential \(e^{iz}\).
\[\sin z=\frac{e^{iz}-e^{-iz}}{2i},\qquad \cos z=\frac{e^{iz}+e^{-iz}}{2}\]
