Question

Prove that `(1 + "i")^4 xx (1 + 1/"i")^4` = 16

Sum

Solution

`(1 + "i")^4 xx (1 + 1/"i")^4`

= `[(1 + "i")(1 + 1/"i")]^4`

= `[(1 + "i") ((1 + "i"))/"i"]^4`

= `[((1 + "i")^2)/"i"]^4`

= `(1 + 2"i" + "i"^2)^4/"i"^4`

= `(1 + 2"i" - 1)^4/1` ...[∵ i2 = – 1]

= 16i4

= 16                    ...[∵ i4 = 1]
