Problem 1. (10 pts each) Write the answers below in polar form!
a. (1 j) + 2j =?
b. (2 4j) + (1 8j) =?
c. (1 2j) (1 + 2j) =?
Problem 2. (10 pts each) Write the answers below in Cartesian form!

a. 10ej 3 12 ej 2 =?
b. 2ej + 5ej
c.

=?

=?

Problem 3. (15 pts) Write f (t) = sin 5t 2 cos 5t as A cos(t + ) by finding the appropriate values
for A, , and !
Problem 4. (25 pts) Given a signal

f (t) =

tet , if t 0,
0, otherwise.

Calculate the energy of the signal! You need to show the steps of your calculation. Hint: use integration
by parts.
