Question

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

`(sqrt(5) + sqrt(3)"i")/(sqrt(5) - sqrt(3)"i")`

Sum
Advertisements

Solution

`(sqrt(5) + sqrt(3)"i")/(sqrt(5) - sqrt(3)"i")`

 = `((sqrt(5) + sqrt(3)"i")(sqrt(5) + sqrt(3)"i"))/((sqrt(5) - sqrt(3)"i")(sqrt(5) + sqrt(3)"i")`

= `(5 + 2sqrt(15)"i" + 3"i"^2)/(5 - 3"i"^2)`

= `(5 + 2sqrt(15)"i" + 3(-1))/(5 - 3(-1)`     ...[∵ i2 = – 1]

= `(2 + 2sqrt(15)"i")/8`

= `(1 + sqrt(15)"i")/4`

= `1/4 + (sqrt(15)"i")/4`.
