Question
If ${(\sqrt 8 + i)^{50}} = {3^{49}}(a + ib)$ then ${a^2} + {b^2}$ is

Answer

c
(c) ${(\sqrt 8 + i)^{50}} = {3^{49}}(a + ib)$
Taking modulus and squaring on both sides, we get
${(8 + 1)^{50}} = {3^{98}}({a^2} + {b^2})$
${9^{50}} = {3^{98}}({a^2} + {b^2})$
${3^{100}} = {3^{98}}({a^2} + {b^2})$
==> $({a^2} + {b^2}) = 9$.
