MCQ
If ${(x + iy)^{1/3}} = a + ib,$then $\frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b}$is equal to
  • A
    $4({a^2} + {b^2})$
  • $4({a^2} - {b^2})$
  • C
    $4({b^2} - {a^2})$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$4({a^2} - {b^2})$
b
(b) ${(x + iy)^{1/3}} = a + ib$==>$(x + iy) = {(a + ib)^3}$
$ = {a^3} + 3{a^2}.ib + 3a.{(ib)^2} + {(ib)^3}$
$ = {a^3} - 3a{b^2} + i(3{a^2}b - {b^3})$
Equating real and imaginary parts, we get
$\frac{x}{a} = {a^2} - 3{b^2}$and $\frac{y}{b} = 3{a^2} - {b^2}$
$\therefore $ $\frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} = 4({a^2} - {b^2})$
