Find the real part and the imaginary part of eiz as well as those of cos z. For what values of z is the real part of eiz equal to cosz? |

Answer» eiz = eix−y = e−y (cos x + isin x) = u + iv, e−iz = e−ix+y = ey(cos x − isin x). Thus cosz = (eiz + e−iz)/2 = cos x cosh y − isin x sinh y. If u is equal to cos z, then e−y cosx = cos x cosh y − isinx sinh y. The real part and the imaginary part of the equation above are: (e−y − cosh y) cosx = 0 and sinx sinhy = 0. If y ≠ 0, these two equalities give sinx = cosx = 0, which is not possible. Both equalities are satisfied if y = 0. Thus the real part of eiz is equal to cos z only if z is real. |
