Question

If i = √-1, then 4 + 5 is equal to

Options

A.1 - i√3
B.-1 + i√3
C.i√3
D.- i√3

Solution

If in a complex number a + ib, the ratio a : b isv √3 , then it always convert the complex number in ω
Since, ω = -
∴     4 + 5
      = 4 + 5 ω334 + 3ω365
      = 4 + 5 (ω3)111 ω + 3.(ω2)1212
      = 4 + 5 ω + 3ω2             (∵ ω3 = 1)
      = 1 + 3 + 2ω + 3ω + 3ω2
      = 1 + 2ω + 3(1 + ω + ω2) = 1 + 2ω + 3 × 0           (∵ 1 + ω + ω2 = 0)
            = 1 + ( -1 + √3i) = √3i.
