Use these trigonometric forms to show that the product of complex conjugates is always a real number. (Modeling) Electric Current Solve each problem. 107. The alternating current in an electric inductor is I = E Z amperes, where E is voltage and Z = R + XLi is impedance. If E = 81cos 20° + i sin 20°2, R = 6, and XL = 3, find the current. Give the answer in rectangular form, with real and imaginary parts to the nearest hundredth. 108. The current I in a circuit with voltage E, resistance R, capacitive reactance Xc, and inductive reactance XL is I = E R + 1XL - Xc2i . Find I if E = 121cos 25° + i sin 25°2, R = 3, XL = 4, and Xc = 6. Give the answer in rectangular form, with real and imaginary parts to the nearest tenth. (Modeling) Impedance In the parallel electric circuit shown in the figure, the impedance Z can be calculated using the equation Z = 1 1 Z1 + 1 Z2 , where Z1 and Z2 are the impedances for the branches of the circuit. 109.
