    1. Find the values of $z$ which make the function $f(z) = \exp(z)$ (a) purely real and (b) purely imaginary.
    2. Prove that MATH where $\Im(z)$ denotes the imaginary part of $z$. Deduce that MATH tends to $\infty$ as MATH.
    (Note that $\sin(z)$ is an unbounded complex-valued function of a complex variable whereas $\sin(x)$ for $x \in \QTR{Bbb}{R}$ is a bounded real-valued function of a real variable.).
    3.Find all solutions of $\exp(z-1) = 1$.
    4. Describe the image of the following sets in the $z$-plane under the mapping $w = \sin(z)$.
    (i) MATH
    (ii) MATH
    (iii) MATH
    (iv) MATH
    (v) MATH
    (vi) MATH
    (vii) MATH

    (Note that mappings by $\cos z$, $\sinh z$ and $\cosh z$ closely related to the $\sin z$ function are easily obtained once mappings by the sine function are known. Because, MATH, MATH and MATH and they are the same as the sine transformation preceded by translation or rotation.

    5. Evaluate the following:
    (i) $\log(3 - 2i)$ $\qquad$ (ii) MATH $\qquad$ (iii) $(i)^{(-i)}$

    6. Determine the domain of analyticity for the function MATH and compute $f^{\prime}(z)$.
    7. Find the principal branch of the function $\log(2z-1)$
