First, convert Z_1 and Z_2 to rectangular form, then add them.

Using Equation (B.1):

L(x(t))=X(s)=\int_0^{\infty} x(t) e^{-s t} dt     (B.1)

The real part a of the Z_1 is:

a=3 \times \cos \left(45^{\circ}\right)=2.1213

The imaginary part b of the Z_1 is:

b=3 \times \sin \left(45^{\circ}\right)=2.1213

The real part c of the Z_2 is:

c=4 \times \cos \left(45^{\circ}\right)=2.8284

The imaginary part d of the Z_2 is:

d=4 \times \sin \left(45^{\circ}\right)=2.8284

Therefore:

Z_1+Z_2=2.1213+j 2.1213+2.8284+j 2.8284=4.9497+j 4.9497

Convert the result to polar form:

\begin{aligned}Z_1+Z_2 &=7 \angle 45^{\circ} \\Z_1 \times Z_2 &=(3 \times 4) \angle\left(45^{\circ}+45^{\circ}\right)=12 \angle 90^{\circ} \\\frac{Z_1}{Z_2} &=\frac{3}{4} \angle\left(45^{\circ}-45^{\circ}\right)=0.75 \angle 0^{\circ}\end{aligned}
