To find the magnitude of the vector represented by the complex
number 5+6i, in either RPN or ALG mode, press 566 to
enter the vector, then press z8 to place the HP
35s into the complex number rθa display mode. The
magnitude is displayed as the 7.81 portion of the complex
number as shown in the display graphic above.
