Solution and Explanation

Let \(z=√5+3i\)

Then,

\(z¯=√5-3i\)

\(|z|^{2}=(√5)^2+(3)^2 =14\)

Therefore the multiplicative inverse of \(4-3i\)

\(z^{-1}=\dfrac{z¯}{|z|^{2}}\)

\(=\dfrac{√5-3i}{14}\)

\(=\dfrac{√5}{14}-\dfrac{3}{14}i\)   (Ans.)

Complex Numbers and Quadratic Equations

Complex Number: Any number that is formed as a+ib is called a complex number. For example: 9+3i,7+8i are complex numbers. Here i = -1. With this we can say that i² = 1. So, for every equation which does not have a real solution we can use i = -1.

Quadratic equation: A polynomial that has two roots or is of the degree 2 is called a quadratic equation. The general form of a quadratic equation is y=ax²+bx+c. Here a≠0, b and c are the real numbers.
