The polar form of $(\text{i}^{25})^3$ is :
  • A
    $\cos\frac{\pi}{2}+\text{i}\sin\frac{\pi}{2}$
  • B
    $\cos\pi+\text{i}\sin\pi$
  • C
    $\cos\pi-\text{i}\sin\pi$
  • $\cos\frac{\pi}{2}-\text{i}\sin\frac{\pi}{2}$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\cos\frac{\pi}{2}-\text{i}\sin\frac{\pi}{2}$
$(\text{i}^{25})^3=(\text{i})^{75}$
$=(\text{i})^{4\times18+3}$
$=(\text{i})^3$
$=-\text{i} \ (\because\text{i}^4=1)$
Let $\text{z}=0-\text{i}$
Since, the point $(0,−1)$ lies on the negative direction of imaginary axis.
Therefore, $\text{arg(z)}=\frac{-\pi}{2}$
Modulus, $\text{r}=|\text{z}|=|1|=1$
$\therefore$ Polar form $=\text{r}(\cos\theta+\text{i}\sin\theta)$
$=\cos\Big(\frac{-\pi}{2}\Big)+\text{i}\sin\Big(\frac{-\pi}{2}\Big)$
$=\cos\frac{\pi}{2}-\text{i}\sin\frac{\pi}{2}$

The argument of $\frac{1-\text{i}\sqrt{3}}{1+\text{i}\sqrt{3}}$ is :
  • A
    $60^\circ$
  • B
    $120^\circ$
  • C
    $210^\circ$
  • $240^\circ$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$240^\circ$
$\frac{1-\text{i}\sqrt{3}}{1+\text{i}\sqrt{3}}$
Rationalising the denominator,
$\frac{1-\text{i}\sqrt{3}}{1+\text{i}\sqrt{3}}\times\frac{1-\text{i}\sqrt{3}}{1-\text{i}\sqrt{3}}$
$=\frac{1+3\text{i}^2-2\sqrt{3}\text{i}}{1-3\text{i}^2}$
$=\frac{-2-2\sqrt{3}\text{i}}{4} \ (\because\text{i}^2=-1)$
$=\frac{-1}{2}-\text{i}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$
Then, $\Rightarrow\tan\alpha=\Big|\frac{\text{Im(z)}}{\text{Re(z)}}\Big|$
$=\sqrt{3}$
$\Rightarrow\alpha=60^\circ$
Since the points $\big(\frac{-1}{2},-\frac{-\sqrt{3}}{2}\big)$ lie in the third quadrant, the argument is given by :
$\theta=180^\circ+60^\circ$
$=240^\circ$

$\text{a}=\cos\theta+\text{i}\sin\theta\ ($given$)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1+\text{a}}{1-\text{a}}=\frac{1+\cos\theta+\text{i}\sin\theta}{1-\cos\theta-\text{i}\sin\theta}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1+\text{a}}{1-\text{a}}=\frac{1+\cos\theta+\text{i}\sin\theta}{1-\cos\theta-\text{i}\sin\theta}\times\frac{1-\cos\theta+\text{i}\sin\theta}{1-\cos\theta+\text{i}\sin\theta}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1+\text{a}}{1-\text{a}}=\frac{(1+\text{i}\sin\theta)^2-\cos^2\theta}{(1-\cos\theta)^2-(\text{i}\sin\theta)^2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1+\text{a}}{1-\text{a}}=\frac{1-\text{i}\sin^2\theta+2\text{i}\sin\theta-\cos^2\theta}{1+\cos^2\theta-2\cos\theta+\sin^2\theta}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1+\text{a}}{1-\text{a}}=\frac{1-(\sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta)+2\text{i}\sin\theta}{1+(\sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta)-2\cos\theta}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1+\text{a}}{1-\text{a}}=\frac{2\text{i}\sin\theta}{2(1-\cos\theta)}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1+\text{a}}{1-\text{a}}=\frac{2\text{i}\sin\frac{\theta}{2}-\cos\frac{\theta}{2}}{2\sin^2\frac{\theta}{2}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1+\text{a}}{1-\text{a}}=\frac{\text{i}\cos\frac{\theta}{2}}{\sin\frac{\theta}{2}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1+\text{a}}{1-\text{a}}=\text{i}\cot\frac{\theta}{2}$

  • D
    The line $x + y = 1$
Answer
Correct option: B.
The $x-$axis

$\Big|\frac{\text{i}+\text{z}}{\text{i}-\text{z}}\Big|=1$
$\Rightarrow \Big|\frac{\text{i}+\text{z}}{\text{i}-\text{z}}\Big|^2=1^2$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{\text{i}+\text{z}}{\text{i}-\text{z}}\Big)\overline{\Big(\frac{\text{i}+\text{z}}{\text{i}-\text{z}}\Big)}=1$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{\text{i}+\text{z}}{\text{i}-\text{z}}\Big)\Big(\frac{-\text{i}+\overline{\text{z}}}{-\text{i}-\overline{\text{z}}}\Big)=1$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{-\text{i}^2-\text{zi}+\overline{\text{z}}\text{i}+\text{z}\overline{\text{z}}}{-\text{i}^2+\text{z}\text{i}-\overline{\text{z}}\text{i}+\text{z}\overline{\text{z}}}\Big)=1$
$\Rightarrow-\text{i}^2-\text{zi}+\overline{\text{z}}\text{i}+\text{z}\overline{\text{z}}=-\text{i}^2+\text{zi}-\overline{\text{z}}\text{i}+\text{z}\overline{\text{z}}$
$\Rightarrow-\text{zi}+\overline{\text{z}}\text{i}=\text{zi}-\overline{\text{z}}\text{i}$
$\Rightarrow\overline{\text{z}}\text{i}+\overline{\text{z}}\text{i}=\text{zi}-\text{zi}$
$\Rightarrow2\overline{\text{z}}\text{i}=2\text{zi}$
$\Rightarrow\overline{\text{z}}=\text{z}$
$ \Rightarrow\text{z}$ is purely real.

$\Rightarrow|\text{z}|=\sqrt{1+\cos^2\theta-2\cos\theta+\sin^2\theta}$
$\Rightarrow|\text{z}|=\sqrt{1+1-2\cos\theta}$
$\Rightarrow|\text{z}|=\sqrt{2(1-2\cos\theta)}$
$\Rightarrow|\text{z}|=\sqrt{4\sin^2\frac{\theta}{2}}$
$\Rightarrow|\text{z}|=2\Big|\sin\frac{\theta}{2}\Big|$

    $0$
  • B
    $1$
  • $100$
  • D
    none of these
Answer
Correct option: C.
$100$
$\therefore\text{x}+\text{iy}=(1+\text{i})(1+2\text{i})(1+3\text{i})$
Taking modulus on both the sides:
$|\text{x}+\text{iy}|=|(1+\text{i})(1+2\text{i})(1+3\text{i})|$
$\Rightarrow|\text{x}+\text{iy}|=|(1+\text{i})|\times|(1+2\text{i})|\times|(1+3\text{i})|$
$\Rightarrow\sqrt{\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2}=\sqrt{1^2+1^2}\sqrt{1^2+2^2}\sqrt{1^2+3^2}$
$\Rightarrow\sqrt{\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2}=\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5}\sqrt{10}$
$\Rightarrow\sqrt{\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2}=\sqrt{100}$
Squaring both the sides,
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2=100$

    $1$
  • B
    $-1$
  • C
    $i$
  • $0$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$0$
$\text{i}+\text{i}^2+\text{i}^3+\text{i}^4...\text{i}^{1000}$
$\text{i}+\text{i}^2+\text{i}^3+\text{i}^4 \ [\because\text{i}^2=-1,\text{i}^3=-\text{i} \ $ and $ \ \text{i}^4=1]$
$=\text{i}-1-\text{i}+1$
$=0$
Similarly, the sum of the next four terms of the series will be equal to $0$.
This is because the powers of i follow a cyclicity of $4.$
Hence, the sum of all terms, till $1000,$ will be zero.
$\text{i}+\text{i}^2+\text{i}^3+\text{i}^4...\text{i}^{1000}=0$

MCQ 101 Mark
If $\frac{3+2\text{i}\sin\theta}{1-2\text{i}\sin\theta}$ is a real number and $0 < \theta < 2\pi,$ then $\theta=$
  • $\pi$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{\pi}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{\pi}{6}$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\pi$
Given :
$\frac{3+2\text{i}\sin\theta}{1-2\text{i}\sin\theta}$ is a real number
On rationalising, we get,
$\frac{3+2\text{i}\sin\theta}{1-2\text{i}\sin\theta}\times\frac{{1+2\text{i}\sin\theta}}{{1+2\text{i}\sin\theta}}$
$=\frac{(3+2\text{i}\sin\theta)({1+2\text{i}\sin\theta})}{(1)^2-(2\text{i}\sin\theta)^2}$
$=\frac{3+2\text{i}\sin\theta+{6\text{i}\sin\theta}+4\text{i}^2\sin^2\theta}{1+4\sin^2\theta}$
$=\frac{3-4\text{i}\sin^2\theta+{8\text{i}\sin\theta}}{1+4\sin^2\theta} \ [\because\text{i}^2=-1]$
$=\frac{3-4\text{i}\sin^2\theta}{1+4\sin^2\theta}+\text{i}\frac{8\sin\theta}{1+4\sin^2\theta}$
For the above term to be real, the imaginary part has to be zero.
$\therefore\frac{8\sin\theta}{1+4\sin^2\theta}=0$
$\Rightarrow8\sin\theta=0$
For this to be zero,
$\sin\theta=0$
$\Rightarrow\theta=0,\pi,2\pi,3\pi...$
But $0<\theta<2\pi$
Hence, $\theta=\pi$

$\text{z}=\frac{-2}{1+\sqrt{3}}$
Rationalising $z,$ we get,
$\text{z}=\frac{-2}{1+\text{i}\sqrt{3}}\times\frac{1-\text{i}\sqrt{3}}{1-\text{i}\sqrt{3}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{-2+\text{i}2\sqrt{3}}{1+3}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{-1+\text{i}\sqrt{3}}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{-1}{2}+\frac{\text{i}\sqrt{3}}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\tan\alpha=\Big|\frac{\text{Im(z)}}{\text{Re(z)}}\Big|$
$=\sqrt{3}$
$\Rightarrow\alpha=\frac{\pi}{3}$
Since $, z$ lies in the second quadrant.
Therefore, $\text{arg(z)}=\pi-\frac{\pi}{3}$
$=\frac{2\pi}{3}$

  • A
    $\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2}$
  • C
    $\text{x}+\text{iy}$
  • $\text{x}-\text{iy}$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\text{x}-\text{iy}$
$\sqrt{\text{a}+\text{ib}}=\text{x}+\text{iy}$
Squaring on both the sides, we get,
$\text{a}+\text{ib}=\text{x}^2+(\text{iy})^2+2\text{i xy}$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}+\text{ib}=(\text{x}^2-\text{y}^2)+2\text{i xy}$
$\therefore\text{a}=(\text{x}^2-\text{y}^2)$
and $\text{b}=2\text{ xy}$
$\therefore\text{a}-\text{ib}=(\text{x}^2-\text{y}^2)-2\text{i xy}$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}-\text{ib}=\text{x}^2+\text{i}^2\text{y}^2-2\text{i xy} \ [\because\text{i}^2=-1]$
Taking square root on both the sides, we get:
$\sqrt{\text{a}-\text{ib}}=\text{x}-\text{iy}$

  • C
    $y−$ axis
  • D
    none of these
Answer
Correct option: B.
circle with centre $(-1, 0) $ and radius $1$
$|\text{z}+1|=1$
$\Rightarrow|\text{z+1|}^2=1^2$
$\Rightarrow(\text{z}+1)\overline{(\text{z}+1)}=1$
$\Rightarrow(\text{z}+1)(\overline{z}+1)=1$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}\overline{\text{z}}+\text{z}+\overline{\text{z}}+1=1$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}\overline{\text{z}}+\text{z}+\overline{\text{z}}=0$
Since, $\text{z}=\text{x}+\text{iy}$
$\therefore\text{z}\overline{\text{z}}+\text{z}+\overline{\text{z}}=0$
$\Rightarrow(\text{x}+\text{iy})(\text{x}-\text{iy})+\text{x}+\text{iy}+\text{x}- \text{iy}=0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2+\text{2x}=0$
$\Rightarrow(\text{x}+1)^2+(\text{y}-0)^2=1^2$
which is the equation of a circle with the center $(-1,\ 0)$ and radius $1$.

$=\frac{7-1+2\text{i}}{1-(1^2+2^2\text{i}^2+4\text{i})}$
$=\frac{6-2\text{i}}{1-1+4-4\text{i}}$
$=\frac{6-2\text{i}}{4-4\text{i}}$
$=\frac{6-2\text{i}}{4-4\text{i}}\times\frac{4+4\text{i}}{4+4\text{i}}$
$=\frac{24+24\text{i}-8\text{i}-8\text{i}^2}{4^2-4^2\text{i}^2}$
$=\frac{24+16\text{i}+8}{16+16}$
$=\frac{32+16\text{i}}{32}$
$=1+\frac{1}{2}\text{i}$
since $\text{z}=1+2\text{i},$

The least positive integer $n$ such that $\Big(\frac{2\text{i}}{1+\text{i}}\Big)^\text{n}$ is a positive integer, is :
  • A
    $16$
  • $8$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
    $2$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$8$
Let $\text{z}=\Big(\frac{2\text{i}}{1+\text{i}}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{2\text{i}}{1+\text{i}}\times\frac{1-\text{i}}{1-\text{i}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{2\text{i}(1-\text{i})}{1-\text{i}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{2\text{i}(1-\text{i})}{1+1} \ [\because\text{i}^2=-1]$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{2\text{i}(1-\text{i})}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\text{i}-\text{i}^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\text{i}+1$
Now, $\text{z}^\text{n}=(1+\text{i})^\text{n}$
For $\text{n}=2,$
$\text{z}^2=(1+\text{i})^2$
$=1+\text{i}^2+2\text{i}$
$=1-1+2\text{i}$
$=2\text{i} \ ...(1)$
Since this is not a positive integer,
For $\text{n}=4,$
$\text{z}^4=(1+\text{i})^4$
$=\big[(1+\text{i})^2\big]^2$
$=(2\text{i})^2 \ [$Using $(1)]$
$=(4\text{i})^2$
$=-4 \ ...(2)$
This is a negative integer.
For $\text{n}=8,$
$\text{z}^8=(1+\text{i})^8$
$=\big[(1+\text{i})^4\big]^2$
$=(-4)^2\ [$Using $(2)]$
$=16$
This is a positive integer.
Thus, $\text{z}=\Big(\frac{2\text{i}}{1+\text{i}}\Big)^\text{n}$ is positive for $\text{n}=8.$
Therefore, $8$ is the least positive integer such that $\Big(\frac{2\text{i}}{1+\text{i}}\Big)^\text{n}$ is a positive integer.

$\frac{1+2\text{i}+3\text{i}^2}{1-2\text{i}+3\text{i}^2}$ equals :
  • A
    $i$
  • B
    $-1$
  • $-i$
  • D
    $4$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$-i$
Let $\text{z}=\frac{1+2\text{i}+3\text{i}^2}{1-2\text{i}+3\text{i}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{1+2\text{i}-3}{1-2\text{i}-3}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{-2+2\text{i}}{-2-2\text{i}}\times\frac{-2+2\text{i}}{-2+2\text{i}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{(-2+2\text{i})^2}{(-2)^2-(2\text{i})^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{4+4\text{i}^2-8\text{i}}{4+4}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{4-4-8\text{i}}{8}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{-8\text{i}}{8}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=-\text{i}$

If $\text{z}=\Big(\frac{1+\text{i}}{1-\text{i}}\Big),$ then $z^4$ equals:
  • $1$
  • B
    $-1$
  • C
    $0$
  • D
    none of these.
Answer
Correct option: A.
$1$
Let $\text{z}=\frac{1+\text{i}}{1-\text{i}}$
Rationalising the denominator:
$\text{z}=\frac{1+\text{i}}{1-\text{i}}\times\frac{1+\text{i}}{1+\text{i}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{1+\text{i}^2+2\text{i}}{1-\text{i}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{1-1+2\text{i}}{1+1}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{2\text{i}}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\text{i}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}^4=\text{i}^4$
Since $\text{i}^2=-1,$ we have:
$\Rightarrow\text{z}^4=\text{i}^2\times\text{i}^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}^4=1$

If $(1+\text{i})(1+2\text{i})(1+3\text{i})...(1+\text{ni})=\text{a}+\text{ib},$ then $2\times5\times10\times...\times(1+\text{n}^2)$ is equal to :
  • A
    $\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}$
  • $\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2$
  • D
    $\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2$
$(1+\text{i})(1+2\text{i})(1+3\text{i})...(1+\text{ni})=\text{a}+\text{ib}$
Taking modulus on both the sides, we get:
$|(1+\text{i})(1+2\text{i})(1+3\text{i})...(1+\text{ni})|=|\text{a}+\text{ib}|$
$|(1+\text{i})(1+2\text{i})(1+3\text{i})...(1+\text{ni})|$ can be written as $|(1+\text{i})\|(1+2\text{i})\|(1+3\text{i})|...|(1+\text{ni})|$
$\sqrt{1^2+1^2}\times\sqrt{1^2+2^2}\times\sqrt{1^2+3^2}\times...\times\sqrt{1+\text{n}^2}=\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{5}\times\sqrt{10}\times...\times\sqrt{1+\text{n}^2}=\sqrt{\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2}$
Squaring on both the sides, we get :
$2\times5\times10\times ... \times(1+\text{n}^2)=\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2$
