where
XM the peak amplitude or the peak
value of the wave
θ the phase angle
◦
i1 = 2.5 cos(120πt + 20 ) A
◦
v1 = 120 cos(120πt − 40 ) V
◦
i1 = 1.4 sin(120πt − 70 ) A
v1 = 120 cos(120πt − 40◦ ) V
we cannot compare sine and cosine waves. We must thus convert one of them. When
converting i1 to cosine wave we get
sin (ω t) = cos (ω t − 90)

1.4 sin(120πt − 70 ) = 1.4 cos(120πt − 70 − 90◦ )
◦
i1 = 1.4 cos(120πt − 160 ) A
