C Correct answer
Explanation

Option $A$

$2+3i>1+4i$
$2^2+3^2>1^2+4^2$
$4+9>1+16$
$13>17$

It is not correct.

$2+2i>3+3i$

$2^2+2^2>3^2+3^2$
$4+4>9+9$
$8>18$

It is not correct.

$5+8i>5+7i$

$5^2+^82>5^2+7^2$
$25+64>25+49$
$89>74$

It is correct.

Hence, this is the answer.

Find the value of $\begin{vmatrix} 2+i & 2-i \ 1+i & 1-i \end{vmatrix}$ if $i^2=-1$.

  1. A complex quantity

  2. real quantity

  3. $0$
  4. cannot be determined

A Correct answer
Explanation

$\left| \begin{matrix} 2+i & 2-i \ 1+i & 1-i \end{matrix} \right| \ =(2+i)(1-i)-(2+i)(1+i)\ =2-2i+i-{ i }^{ 2 }-2-2i-i-{ i }^{ 2 }\ =-4i+2$

So it is complex quantity

$\displaystyle i+\frac{1}{i}=$

  1. $1$
  2. $-1$
  3. $0$
  4. $2i$

C Correct answer
Explanation

Let $Z= i+\dfrac{1}{i}$


Mutiplying numerator and denominator by i. We get,

          $=i+\dfrac{i}{i^{2}}$

          $=i+\dfrac{i}{-1} \quad \dots (i^2=-1)$

          $=i-i$

      $Z=0$

Hence, 

$i+\dfrac{1}{i}=0$.

The smallest integer n such that $\displaystyle \left(\frac{1+i}{1-i}\right)^{n}= 1$ is

  1. 16

  2. 12

  3. 8

  4. 4

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

$\displaystyle \left ( \frac{1 + i}{1 - i} \right )^n = 1$         ${ \because -i = \displaystyle \Rightarrow \frac{1}{i}}$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow\left ( \frac{1 + i}{\displaystyle 1 + \frac{1}{i}} \right )^n = 1$
$i^n = 1$
so min value of $n =4$

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

$\displaystyle \left ( \frac{1 + i}{1 - i} \right )^2 + \left(\frac{1 - i}{1 + i} \right )^2$ is equal to

  1. $2i$
  2. $-2i$
  3. $-2$
  4. $2$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

$\left(\dfrac{1+i}{1-i}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{1-i}{1+i}\right)^2=\left[\dfrac{(1+i)(1+i)}{(1-i)(1+i)}\right]^2+\left[\dfrac{(1-i)(1-i)}{(1+i)(1-i)}\right]^2$


$=\left[\dfrac{1+2i-1}{2}\right]^2+\left[\dfrac{1-2i-1}{2}\right]^2$

$=\dfrac{4i^2}{4}+\dfrac{4i^2}{4}=[-1]+[-1]=-2$
