= (1/2) (1/2) √-3i
= √3/4 i
Que-10: 6 / -i
Sol: 6/−i = (6/−i) × (i/i)
= 6i/−i²
= 6i/ −(−1)
= 6i
Que-11: √-144
Sol: √(12×12) √-1
= 12 i
Que-12: x / i
Sol: x/i
= (x/i) × (i/i)
= ix/i²
= – i x
Simplify
Que-13: i¹³
Sol: i13 = i12 i
= (i4)³ i = 1³ i
= i [∵ i4 = 1]
Que-14: i28
Sol: i28 = (i4)7
= 1 [∵ i4 = (i²)² = (- 1)² = 1]
Que-15: i18
Sol: i18 = (i4)4 i²
= 14 x (- 1)
= – 1
Que-16: i23
Sol: i23 = (i4)5 i³
= 15 x i² x i
= 1 x (- 1) x i
= – i
Que-17: √-4 + √-16 – √-25
Sol: 2i + 4i – 5i
= 6i – 5i = i
Que-18: √-20 + √-12
Sol: 2√5i + 2√3i
= 2(√+√3) i
Que-19: -√(-7/4) – √(-1/7)
Sol: -(√7i)/2 – (i/√7)
= {-i(7+2)}/2√7
= (-9i/2√7) (√7/√7)
= -9√7i / 14
Que-20: √-2 / √-8
Sol: √2i / 2√2
= 1/2
Que-21: 1/i + 1/i² + 1/i³ + 1/i^4
Sol: (1/i) + (1/−1) + (1/−i) + 1
= (1/i) − 1 − (1/i) + 1 = 0
Que-22: 1/i − 1/i² + 1/i³ − 1/i^4
Sol: (1/i) + 1 − (1/i) − 1
= 0 [∵ i² = – 1 and i4 = 1]
Que-23: i + 2i² + 3i³ + i4
Sol: i + 2i² + 3i³ + i^4
= i + 2 (- 1) + 3i (- 1) + 1
= i – 2 – 3i + 1
= – 2i – 1
Que-24: [i^(18) + (1/i)^(25)]³
Sol: [i^(18) + (1/i)^(25)]³
![[i^(18) + (1/i)^(25)]³](https://icsehelp.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/12.png)
= [-1 – i]³ = – (1+i)³
= – [1+i³+3i(1+i)]
= – [1-i+3i-3]
= – (-2+2i)
= 2 (1-i)
Que-25: √(-x/4) + √(-x/16) + √(-x/64), where x is a positive real number.
Sol: √(-x/4) + √(-x/16) + √(-x/64)

Que-26: √-5x^8 – √-20x^8 + √-45x^8, where x is a positive real number.
Sol: √-5x^8 – √-20x^8 + √-45x^8
= √5x^4 i – 2√5x^4 i + 3√5x^4 i
= 2√5 i x^4
Que-27: If i = √-1 prove the following :
(x + 1 + i) (x + 1 – i) (x – 1 – i) = x^4 + 4.
Sol: L.H.S = (x + 1 + i) (x + 1 – i) (x – 1 + i) (x – 1 – i)
= [(x + 1)² – i²] [(x – 1)² – i²]
= [x² + 2x + 1 + 1] [x² – 2x + 1 + 1]
= (x² + 2x + 2) (x² – 2x + 2)
= (x² + 2 + 2x) (x² + 2 – 2x)
= (x² + 2)² – (2x)²
= x4 + 4x² + 4 – 4x²
= x4 + 4 = R.H.S
Que-28: Find the value of (1-i)^n [1 – (1/i)]^n, where n is a positive integer.
Sol: (1-i)^n [1 – (1/i)]^n
= (1-i)^n [1 – (i^n)/i]^n
= (1-i)^n (1+i³)^n
= [(1-i)(1+i)]^n
= (1-i²)^n
= 2^n
