Sorry about that, Matt.

1. (11 + 2i)^4 = 11753 + 10296i

(Radian Mode)
R>Pr(11,2)^4 sto→ x (15625)
R>PΘ(11,2)*4 sto→ y (0.719413999)
P>Rx(x,y) returns 11753
P>Ry(x,y) returns 10296

2. (4-3i)^5 = -3116 + 237i

(Radian Mode)
R>Pr(4,-3)^5 sto→ x (3125)
R>PΘ(4,-3)*5 sto→ y (-3.217505544)
P>Rx(x,y) returns -3116
P>Ry(x,y) returns 237

General:
R>Pr(a,b)^n sto→ x
R>PΘ(a,b)*n sto→ y
P>Rx(x,y) returns the real part of the result
P>Ry(x,y) returns the imaginary part of the result

Thanks! Makes sense now!
