Question

Find the multiplicative inverse of the complex number:

4 – 3i

Sum

Solution

Multiplicative inverse of `4 - 3i = 1/(4-3i)`

\[ z = 4 - 3i\]

\[\text { Then,} \frac{1}{z} = \frac{1}{4 - 3i} \times \frac{4 + 3i}{4 + 3i}\]

\[ = \frac{4 + 3i}{16 - 9 i^2}\]

\[ = \frac{4 + 3i}{25}\]

\[ = \frac{4}{25} + \frac{3}{25}i\]
