Can you prove the below equality? eix=cos(x)+isin(x)
This is how Leonard Euler did it.
Paging through a wonderful book “An imaginary tale: The story of −1−−−√ by Paul J. Nahin (strongly recommend!), I discovered this episode of history.
On 18 October 1740 Euler wrote to John Bernoulli that the solution to differential equation of a harmonic oscillator
y”+y=0,y(0)=2,y'(0)=0
can be written in two ways:
y(x)=2cos x
and
y(x)=eix+e−ix.
He concluded from that
2cosx=eix+e−ix.
which was first step to his famous formula. After differentiating the last fomula with respect to x, one gets
−2sinx=ieix−ie−ix,
or
2isinx= eix−e−ix.
Adding expressions for 2cosx and 2 i sinx, one concludes
2cosx+2isinx=2eix,
that is, the desired formula
eix=cosx+isinx.
Obviously, Euler was using the uniqueness of a solution with given initial values. I bet his belief in the uniqueness was rooted in physical intuition. IMHO, for Euler, expansion of mathematical language did not change his vision of the world. I would not be surprised if he was thinking that an “imaginary” solution corresponded to something in the real world, something that was not discovered yet.
please drop some ❤️❤️❤️
