Question

The number `(1 - i)^3/(1 - i^2)` is equal to ______.

Fill in the Blanks

Solution

The number `(1 - i)^3/(1 - i^2)` is equal to –2.

Explanation:

`(1 - i)^3/(1 - i^2) = (1 - i)^3/((1 - i)(1 + i + i^2))`

= `(1 - i)^2/((1 + i - 1))`

= `(1 + i^2 - 2i)/i`

= `(1 - 1 - 2i)/i`

= `(-2i)/i`

= –2
