$\sin (2 θ)$

Step 1

This is the trigonometric form of a complex number where $| z |$ is the modulus and $θ$ is the angle created on the complex plane.

$z = a + b i = | z | (\cos (θ) + i \sin (θ))$

Step 2

The modulus of a complex number is the distance from the origin on the complex plane.

$| z | = \sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2}}$ where $z = a + b i$

Step 3

Substitute the actual values of $a = \sin (2 θ)$ and $b = 0$ .

$| z | = \sqrt{0^{2} + \sin^{2} (2 θ)}$

Step 4

Find $| z |$ .

Step 4.1

Raising $0$ to any positive power yields $0$ .

$| z | = \sqrt{0 + \sin^{2} (2 θ)}$

Step 4.2

Add $0$ and $\sin^{2} (2 θ)$ .

$| z | = \sqrt{\sin^{2} (2 θ)}$

Step 4.3

Pull terms out from under the radical, assuming positive real numbers.

$| z | = \sin (2 θ)$

Step 5

The angle of the point on the complex plane is the inverse tangent of the complex portion over the real portion.

$θ = \arctan (\frac{0}{\sin (2 θ)})$

Step 6

Substitute the values of $θ = \arctan (\frac{0}{\sin (2 θ)})$ and $| z | = \sin (2 θ)$ .

$\sin (2 θ) (\cos (\arctan (\frac{0}{\sin (2 θ)})) + i \sin (\arctan (\frac{0}{\sin (2 θ)})))$
