Exercise 3.  Sketch the set of points satisfying the following relations.  

3 (a).  [Graphics:Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_263.gif].

Solution 3 (a).

See text and/or instructor's solution manual.

Answer.  The points that lie to the extreme right or left of the branches of the hyperbola  [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_264.gif].  

Solution.   The mapping is  [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_265.gif][Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_266.gif]  and

the point  [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_267.gif]  in the xy-plane is mapped to the point  [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_268.gif]  in the uv-plane,

and we get Equations (2-9);  [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_269.gif]  and  [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_270.gif].  

Given that  [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_271.gif],  we conclude that  [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_272.gif],  

which are the points that lie to the extreme right or left of the branches of the hyperbola  [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_273.gif].  

                                        

                   [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_274.gif] 

  

                    The set of points satisfying the relation  [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_275.gif].   

We are done.   

Aside.  We can let Mathematica double check our work.

                                        

                    [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_276.gif]

                    The set of points satisfying the relation  [Graphics:../Images/ComplexFunPowerRootModHome_gr_277.gif].
