maths complex numbers and linear inequations identities of complex numbers powers of imaginary unit i algebra of complex numbers

  1. $50(1-i)$

  2. $25i$

  3. $25(1+i)$

  4. $100(1-i)$

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$S=i+2i^2+3i^3\ldots+100i^{100}\S=i-2-3i+4+\ldots +100\S=i(1-3+5\ldots)+(-2+4\ldots)\S=50-50i=50(1-i) $

 Find the value of $\dfrac{i^6 + i^7 + i^8 + i^9}{i^2 + i^3}$

maths complex numbers and linear inequations identities of complex numbers powers of imaginary unit i algebra of complex numbers

  1. $ 0
    $

  2. $ 1
    $

  3. $ -1
    $

  4. $ None.
    $

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Let $Z=\dfrac{i^6+i^7+i^8+i^9}{i^2+i^3}$


$=\dfrac{(i^2)^3-(i^2)^3i+(i^4)^2+(i^4)^2i}{-1-i}$


We know that, $i^2=-1$    and     $i^4=1$

$=\dfrac{-1-i+1+i}{-1-i}$

$Z=0$


$\therefore \dfrac{i^6+i^7+i^8+i^9}{i^2+i^3}=0$

The value of the sum $\displaystyle \sum _{n=1}^{13}(i^n+i^{n+1})$, where $i=\sqrt {-1}$, equals

maths complex numbers and linear inequations identities of complex numbers powers of imaginary unit i algebra of complex numbers

  1. i

  2. i-1

  3. -i

  4. 0

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

We have $i^2 = -1$
Thus, $\displaystyle \sum _{n=1}^{4}(i^n+i^{n+1}) = (i^1 + i^2) + (i^2 + i^3) + (i^3 + i^4) + (i^4 + i^5) = (i - 1) + (-1 - i) + (-i + 1) + (1 + i) = 0$
\Rightarrow $\displaystyle \sum _{n=1}^{12}(i^n+i^{n+1}) = 0$
Now, only remains is $i^{13} + i^{14} = i - 1$

The value of $5\sqrt {-8}$ is 

maths complex numbers and linear inequations identities of complex numbers powers of imaginary unit i algebra of complex numbers

  1. $10i\sqrt {4}$

  2. $20i\sqrt {2}$

  3. $10i\sqrt {2}$

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

$5\sqrt {-8}$ $= 5\sqrt {8}\times \sqrt {-1}$

$=5\ i \sqrt {8}$ $= 5\ i \sqrt {4\times 2}$

$= 10\ i \sqrt {2}$
So, option C is correct.

The value of $2\sqrt {-49}$ is equal to

maths complex numbers and linear inequations identities of complex numbers powers of imaginary unit i algebra of complex numbers

  1. $-14$

  2. None of these

  3. $14$

  4. $14i$

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

$2\sqrt {-49}$ $= 2\sqrt {-1 \times 7\times 7}$

$= 2\times 7\sqrt {-1}$ $= 14i$
So, option D is correct.

The value of $\sqrt {-36} $ is

maths complex numbers and linear inequations identities of complex numbers powers of imaginary unit i algebra of complex numbers

  1. $6$

  2. $-6$

  3. $6i$

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

$\sqrt {-36}$ $=\sqrt {-1 \times 6 \times 6}$

$= 6\sqrt {-1}$   ...............$(\because \sqrt {-1} = i)$
$= 6i$
So, option $C$ is correct.

If $(i^{413})(i^x)=1$, then determine the one possible value of x.

maths complex numbers and linear inequations identities of complex numbers powers of imaginary unit i algebra of complex numbers

  1. $0$

  2. $1$

  3. $2$

  4. $3$

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

${ i }^{ 413 }{ i }^{ x }=1$

$\Rightarrow \quad { i }^{ 413 }=1$
now, $\left( 413+x \right) $ must be a multiple of 4 becouse ${ i }^{ 4 }=1$
$\therefore \quad \left( 413+3 \right) $ is divisible by $4$
                                     hence $x=3$

Evaluate and write in standard form $(4-2i)(-3+3i)$, where ${i}^{2}=-1$.

maths complex numbers and linear inequations identities of complex numbers powers of imaginary unit i algebra of complex numbers

  1. $6+18i$

  2. $-6+18i$

  3. $12+18i$

  4. $6-18i$

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Consider $(4-2i)(-3+3i)$

$\Rightarrow (4-2i)(-3+3i)=4(-3)+4(3i)-2i(-3)-2i(3i)$
$=-12+12i+6i-6i^2$
$=-12+18i+6$       ..... (as $i^2=-1$)
$=-6+18i$

If $i^{2} =-1$, then $i^{162}$ is equal to

maths complex numbers and linear inequations identities of complex numbers powers of imaginary unit i algebra of complex numbers

  1. $-i$

  2. $-1$

  3. $0$

  4. $1$

  5. $i$

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:
${ i }^{ 162 } = { i }^{ 2\left( 81 \right)  }\\$
$ \therefore  { i }^{ 2\left( 81 \right)  } = { -1 }^{ 81 } = { \left( -1 \right)  }^{ 81 } = -1$

If $i=\sqrt{-1}$, then select from the following having the greatest value.

maths complex numbers and linear inequations identities of complex numbers powers of imaginary unit i algebra of complex numbers

  1. $i^4+i^3+i^2+i$

  2. $i^8+i^6+i^4+i^2$

  3. $i^{12}+i^9+i^6+i^3$

  4. $i^{16}+i^{12}+i^8+i^4$

  5. $i^{20}+i^{15}+i^{10}+i^5$

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Given, $i=\sqrt {-1}$

The value of option $A$ is $1-i-1+i = 0$
The value in option $B$ is $1-1+1-1 = 0$
The value in option $C$ is $1+i-1-i = 0$
The value in option $D$ is $1+1+1+1 = 4$
The value in option $E$ is $1-i-1+i = 0$
So, the correct answer is option $D$.
