Question

Simplify the following and express in the form a + ib:

`(4 + 3"i")/(1 - "i")`

Sum

Solution

`(4 + 3"i")/(1 - "i") = ((4 + 3"i")(1 + "i"))/((1 - "i")(1 + "i")`

= `(4 + 4"i" + 3"i" + 3"i"^2)/(1 - "i"^2)`

= `(4 + 7"i" + 3(-1))/(1 - (-1)`      ...[∵ i2 = – 1]

= `(1 + 7"i")/2`

= `1/2+7/2"i"`.
