Thevenin Theorem
Figure 2.4(f) shows the new circuit;

By using Voltage Divider Rule (VDR),
Vth = V4Ω = 4 x (-j150) = (60 – j120) Volts
(4 + j3 – j5)
Step 3
Draw the Thevenin equivalent circuit with the impedance (2 + j4) Ω connected to the
circuit.

Step 4
Calculate the current that flow through (2 + j4) Ω.
(60−j120 )
i(2 + j4)Ω = (0.8 − j1.6) + (2+j4) = (-8.823 – j35.294) Amps
The current flowing through the impedance (2 + j4) Ω = (- 8.823 – j35.294) Amps
