Euler's identity

Solution

To start, let’s expand the exponential function
\[e^{z}=1+\frac{z}{1 !}+\frac{z^{2}}{2 !}+\ldots+\frac{z^{n}}{n !}+\cdots\]
\(z=x+iy\), putting \(x=0\) we get \(z=iy\)
\begin{aligned} e^{i y} &=1+\frac{i y}{1 !}+\frac{(i y)^{2}}{2 !}+\frac{(i y)^{3}}{3 !}+\frac{(i y)^{4}}{4 !}+\cdots \\ &=\left(1-\frac{y^{2}}{2 !}+\frac{y^{4}}{4 !}-\cdots\right)+i\left(y-\frac{y^{3}}{3 !}+\frac{y^{5}}{5 !}-\cdots\right) \\ &=\cos y+i \sin y \end{aligned}
\[e^{z}=e^{x} e^{i y}=e^{x}(\cos y+i \sin y)\]
\[\begin{aligned} x+i y &=\gamma(\cos \theta+i \sin \theta)=\gamma e^{i \theta} \\ z &=x+i y \quad[\text { cartesian form ] }\\ &=\gamma(\sin \theta+i \sin \theta) \quad[\text { polar form ]} \\ &\left.=\gamma e^{i \theta} \quad \text { [ exponential form }\right] \end{aligned}\]
\[\begin{aligned} &-1=-1+i(0) \\ &\Rightarrow \gamma= \sqrt{(-1)^{2}}=1 \\ &\Rightarrow \theta=\pi \\ &\Rightarrow e^{i\pi}=-1 \end{aligned} \]
