You know about this stuff, right? In FT the "real" part of complex numbers is what you keep calling "sine part", and the "imaginary" part of the complex numbers is what you call the "cosine part". These two are orthogonal (have an angle of 90 degrees) and the whole complex number can also be described as amplitude (square root of the real & imaginary parts squared) plus a phase.
