sqrt10(cos1.249+isin1.249)

Explanation:

"to convert to "color(blue)"trigonometric form"

"that is "x+yitor(costheta+isintheta)" using"

•color(white)(x)r=sqrt(x^2+y^2)

•color(white)(x)theta=tan^-1(y/x);-pi < theta <=pi

"here "x=1" and "y=3

rArrr=sqrt(1^2+3^2)=sqrt10

theta=tan^-1(3)=1.249" radians"
