ComplexExpand

Usage
Notes
Further Examples

You can expand complex powers.

In[1]:=  

Out[1]=

In[2]:=  

Out[2]=

The result here is not x  y because x or y could be complex.

In[3]:=  

Out[3]=

This assumes x and y are real.

In[4]:=  

Out[4]=

You can expand complex exponential, trigonometric, and hyperbolic functions.

In[5]:=  

Out[5]=

In[6]:=  

Out[6]=

In[7]:=  

Out[7]=

You can expand trig and hyperbolic functions of complex arguments.

In[8]:=  

Out[8]=

In[9]:=  

Out[9]=

Using the TargetFunction option

This forces Mathematica to assume both x and y are real.

In[10]:=  

Out[10]=

This is an expansion in terms of z and the absolute value of z.

In[11]:=  

Out[11]=

Now we expand in terms of polar coordinates.

In[12]:=  

Out[12]=

Finally, here is an expansion in terms of z and its conjugate.

In[13]:=  

Out[13]=
