Essential Formulas & Mathematical Definitions
z = a + i b
|z| = √(a² + b²)
z̄ = a - i b
Polar: z = r(cos θ + i sin θ) = r e^(iθ)
De Moivre: (cos θ + i sin θ)ⁿ = cos(nθ) + i sin(nθ)
Principal Argument (-π < θ ≤ π)
Argument θ is found via tan α = |b/a|, adjusted based on the quadrant of (a, b).

High-Yield Exam Strategy & Scoring Tips
Step-by-Step Mark Allocation
Always state the governing principle or formula first, write given values with standard SI units, substitute clearly, and highlight the final numerical answer with units in a box for full step marking.
Common Calculation Traps
Watch for unit prefixes (cm to m, minutes to seconds, g to kg, degrees to radians). In coordinate and ray optics problems, double-check Cartesian sign conventions before computing.
