Why do you multiply for a change of direction?Think complex plane, not number line.
How does "change of direction" get turned into
a multiplication at all?
Do you truly think 180 degrees = -1 ?Look on the complex plane. Draw the vector from origin (0) to
the complex number. The angle between that vector and the positive x
axis is the phase angle.
Do this with the number -1. What is the phase angle? 180 degrees.
That is real silly.No. Phase of -1 is 180 degrees. 180 degrees is equivalent to being
I am glad you can make up such imaginary math.
180 = -1..
a negative number. It is not equal to a negative number and no one
says it was.
I apologize to the dyslexics. As Mel Brooks would say: Spaceman
is not a dyslexic! <meaningful pause> He is brain dead!
