MCQ
Additive inverse of $1 - i$is
  • A
    $0 + 0i$
  • B
    $ - 1 - i$
  • $ - 1 + i$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
$ - 1 + i$
c
(c) If $z = x + iy$ is the additive inverse of $1 - i$then $(x + iy) + (1 - i) = 0$ 

==> $x + 1 = 0$, $y - 1 = 0$

==> $x = - 1$, $y = 1$

$\therefore $ The additive inverse of $1 - i$is $z = - 1 + i$

Trick : Since $(1 - i) + ( - 1 + i) = 0$.
