Question 73 Marks
Solve the following equations for $x, y \in R$ : $( x + iy )(5+6 i )=2+3 i$
Answer
$( x + iy )(5+6 i )=2+3 i$
$\therefore \quad x+ i y=\frac{2+3 i }{5+6 i }$
$\therefore \quad x+ i y=\frac{(2+3 i )(5-6 i )}{(5+6 i )(5-6 i )}$
$=\frac{10-12 i +15 i -18 i ^2}{25-36 i ^2}$
$=\frac{10+3 i -18(-1)}{25-36(-1)} \quad \ldots\left[\because i ^2=-1\right]$
$\therefore \quad x+ i y=\frac{28+3 i }{61}=\frac{28}{61}+\frac{3}{61} i $
Equating real and imaginary parts, we get
$x=\frac{28}{61} \text { and } y=\frac{3}{61}$

Question 83 Marks
If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are the complex cube roots of unity, show that $\alpha^2+\beta^2+\alpha \beta=0$.
Answer
$\alpha$ and $\beta$ are the complex cube roots of unity.
$
\begin{aligned}
& \therefore \quad \alpha=\frac{-i+i \sqrt{3}}{2} \text { and } \beta=\frac{-1-i \sqrt{3}}{2} \\
& \therefore \quad \alpha \beta=\left(\frac{-1+i \sqrt{3}}{2}\right)\left(\frac{-1-i \sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \\
& =\frac{(-1)^2-(\mathrm{i} \sqrt{3})^2}{4}=\frac{1-(-1)(3)}{4} \ldots\left[\because \mathrm{i}^2=-1\right] \\
& =\frac{1+3}{4} \\
& \therefore \quad \alpha \beta=1 \quad \text { } \\
& \text { Also, } \alpha+\beta=\frac{-1+i \sqrt{3}}{2}+\frac{-1-i \sqrt{3}}{2} \\
& =\frac{-1+\mathrm{i} \sqrt{3}-1-\mathrm{i} \sqrt{3}}{2} \\
& =\frac{-2}{2} \\
& \therefore \alpha-\beta=-1 \\
& \text { L.H.S. }=\alpha^2+\beta^2+\alpha \beta \\
& =\alpha^2+2 \alpha \beta+\beta^2+\alpha \beta-2 \alpha \beta \\
& =\left(\alpha^2+2 \alpha \beta+\beta^2\right)-\alpha \beta \\
& =(\alpha+\beta)^2-\alpha \beta \\
& =(-1)^2-1 \\
& =1-1 \\
& =0 \\
& =\text { R.H.S. } \\
&
\end{aligned}

Question 93 Marks
Solve the following quadratic equations.
$i x^2-4 x-4 i=0$
Answer
$
i x^2-4 x-4 i=0
$
Multiplying throughout by $\mathrm{i}$, we get
$
\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{i}^2 \mathrm{x}^2-4 \mathrm{ix}-4 \mathrm{i}^2=0 \\
& \therefore-\mathrm{x}^2-4 \mathrm{ix}+4=0 \ldots \ldots\left[\because \mathrm{i}^2=-1\right] \\
& \therefore \mathrm{x}^2+4 \mathrm{ix}-4=0
\end{aligned}
$
Comparing with $a x^2+b x+c=0$, we get
$
a=1, b=4 i, c=-4
$
Discriminant $=b^2-4 a c$
$
\begin{aligned}
& =(4 i)^2-4 \times 1 \times-4 \\
& =16 i^2+16 \\
& =-16+16 \ldots . .\left[\because i^2=-1\right] \\
& =0
\end{aligned}
$
So, the given equation has equal roots.
These roots are given by
$
\begin{aligned}
x & =\frac{-\mathrm{b} \pm \sqrt{\mathrm{b}^2-4 \mathrm{ac}}}{2 \mathrm{a}} \\
& =\frac{-4 \mathrm{i} \pm \sqrt{0}}{2(1)}=\frac{-4 \mathrm{i}}{2}
\end{aligned}
$
$x=-2 \mathrm{i}$
$\therefore$ the roots of the given equation are $-2 \mathrm{i}$ and $-2 \mathrm{i}$.

Question 163 Marks
Find the values of $x$ and $y$ which satisfy the following equations $(x, y \in R)$ : $\frac{x+1}{1+\mathrm{i}}+\frac{y-1}{1-\mathrm{i}}=\mathrm{i}$
Answer
\begin{aligned}
& \frac{x+1}{1+\mathrm{i}}+\frac{y-1}{1-\mathrm{i}}=\mathrm{i} \\
& \frac{(x+1)(1-\mathrm{i})+(y-1)(1+\mathrm{i})}{(1+\mathrm{i})(1-\mathrm{i})}=\mathrm{i} \\
& \frac{x-x \mathrm{i}+1-\mathrm{i}+y+y \mathrm{i}-1-\mathrm{i}}{1-\mathrm{i}^2}=\mathrm{i} \\
& \frac{(x+y)+(y-x-2) \mathrm{i}}{1-(-1)}=\mathrm{i} \\
& (\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y})+(\mathrm{y}-\mathrm{x}-2) \mathrm{i}=2 \mathrm{i} \\
& (\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y})+(\mathrm{y}-\mathrm{x}-2) \mathrm{i}=0+2 \mathrm{i}
\end{aligned}
$
Equating real and imaginary parts, we get
$
x+y=0 \text { and } y-x-2=2
$
$
\therefore \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y}=0
$
$
\text { and }-x+y=4
$
Adding (i) and (ii), we get
$
\begin{aligned}
& 2 y=4 \\
& \therefore y=2
\end{aligned}
$
Putting $y=2$ in (i), we get
$
\begin{aligned}
& x+2=0 \\
& \therefore x=-2 \\
& \therefore x=-2 \text { and } y=2
\end{aligned}

Question 173 Marks
Find the values of $x$ and $y$ which satisfy the following equations $(x, y \in R)$ : $(x+2 y)+(2 x-3 y) i+4 i=5$
Answer
$
\begin{aligned}
& (x+2 y)+(2 x-3 y) i+4 i=5 \\
& \therefore(x+2 y)+(2 x-3 y) i=5-4 i
\end{aligned}
$
Equating real and imaginary parts, we get
$
x+2 y=5
$
and $2 x-3 y=-4$
Equation (i) $\times 2-$ equation (ii) gives
$
\begin{aligned}
& 7 \mathrm{y}=14 \\
& \therefore \mathrm{y}=2
\end{aligned}
$
Putting $y-2$ in (i), we get
$
\begin{aligned}
& x+2(2)=5 \\
& \therefore x+4=5 \\
& \therefore x=1 \\
& \therefore x=1 \text { and } y=2
\end{aligned}
$
Check:
If $x=1$ and $y=2$ satisfy the given condition, then our answer is correct.
$
\begin{aligned}
& \text { L.H.S. }=(x+2 y)+(2 x-3 y) i+4 i \\
& =(1+4)+(2-6) i+4 i \\
& =5-4 i+4 i \\
& =5 \\
& =\text { R.H.S. }
\end{aligned}
$
Thus, our answer is correct.$
