Problem

Express the following in the form z=Re[Aei(ωt+α)]z = \mathrm{Re}[Ae^{i(\omega t + \alpha)}] ((a)) z=sin⁡ωt+cos⁡ωtz = \sin \omega t + \cos \omega t. ((b)) z=cos⁡(ωt−π/3)−cos⁡ωtz = \cos(\omega t - \pi/3) - \cos \omega t. ((c)) z=2sin⁡ωt+3cos⁡ωtz = 2 \sin \omega t + 3 \cos \omega t. ((d)) z=sin⁡ωt−2cos⁡(ωt−π/4)+cos⁡ωtz = \sin \omega t - 2\cos(\omega t - \pi/4) + \cos \omega t.
