Solution

x + iy = (a + ib)3 

∴ x + iy = a3 + 3a2(ib) + 3a(ib)2 + (ib)3

∴ x + iy = a3 + 3a2bi + 3ab2i2 + b3i3

∴ x + iy = a3 + 3a2bi – 3ab2 – b3i   ...[∵ i2 = – 1, i3 = – i]

∴ x + yi = (a3 – 3ab2) + (3a2b – b3)i

Equating the real and imaginary parts separately, we get,

x = a3 – 3ab2 and y = 3a2b – b3

∴ x = a(a2 – 3b2) and y = b(3a2 – b2)

∴ `x/"a"` = a2 – 3b2 and `y/"b"` = 3a2 – b2

∴ `x/"a" + y/"b"` = a2 – 3b2 + 3a2 – b2 = 4a2 – 4b2

∴ `x/"a" + y/"b"` = 4(a2 – b2)
