$z=-3-4i$ . In polar form this becomes $[5, 233° ]$. The question then asks for $z^2$, so the polar form becomes $[25,466]$ However in the solution they did $466° -360° $ and I am unsure why they did this. Is it a rule that needs to be applied.

          It is just to get the principal value of the angle, since if you rotate by an angle $466^{circ}$ you'll get to the same position as rotating $106^{circ}$ so we usually take the smallest angle that is needed to arrive at the desired position.



          The principal angle is an angle between $-180^{circ}$ and $+180^{circ}$
