Question

Find the multiplicative inverse of the following complex number:

1 − i

Advertisements

Solution

\[\text{ Let} z = 1 - i . \text { Then} , \]

\[\frac{1}{z} = \frac{1}{1 - i}\]

\[ = \frac{1}{1 - i} \times \frac{1 + i}{1 + i}\]

\[ = \frac{1 + i}{1 - i^2}\]

\[ = \frac{1}{2}\left( 1 + i \right)\]

\[ = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2}i\]
