VIMs can also give the user impedance in rectangular
vector form (i.e., R and X), by multiplying jZj by cosðÞ and sinðÞ respectively. Once X
is known and the impedance is known to be inductive, the equivalent L can be found
by dividing X by the known 2f. A similar means can be used to obtain a numerical value
of C when the impedance is known to be from a capacitor.
