Question

If (a + ib) = `(1 + "i")/(1 - "i")`, then prove that (a2 + b2) = 1

Sum

Solution

(a + ib) = `(1 + "i")/(1 - "i") = (1 + "i")^2/((1 - "i")(1 + "i"))`

∴ a + bi = `(1 + 2"i" + "i"^2)/(1 - "i"^2)`

= `(1 + 2"i" - 1)/(1 - (- 1))`  ...[∵ i2 = – 1]

= `(2"i")/2`

= i

∴ a + bi = 0 + i

Equating real and imaginary parts, we get

a = 0 and b = 1

∴ a2 + b2 = 02 + 12 = 1
