write 2-2i in its modulus argument form
firsly sketch out the 2-2i on an argand diagrm and draw a line from (0,0) to (2,-2). With the shortest distance Mark the angle theta from the positive x-axis to the line to see whether the argument is positive or negative.
then do arctan(-2/2) to get the angle -pi/4. notice this angle is from the neative x-axis to the point (2,-2) so have to do pi-pi/4 to get the argument 3pi/4.
the to get the modulus it's sqrt(22+(-22)) which is root(8)

A golf ball is hit from horizontal ground with speed 10 m/s at an angle of p degrees above the horizontal. The greatest height the golf ball reached above ground level is 1.22m. Model the golf ball as a particle and ignore air resistance. Find p.
In simple harmonic motion, where would the object have the largest speed. If the angular velocity is 2 rad s^-1, and the amplitude is 1m, what is the largest speed obtained by the object?
Given that p≥ -1 , prove by induction that, for all integers n≥1 , (1+p)^k ≥ 1+k*p.
