The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Since $(1 + i) (1 + 2i) (1 + 3i)......(1 + ni)$ $=x+iy \quad \ldots(1)$ $\therefore (1 - i) (1 - 2i) (1 - 3i) .... (1 - ni)$ $=x-iy\quad \ldots(2)$ Multilying $(1)$ and $(2)$ we get, $\left(1-i^{2}\right)\left(1-4i^{2}\right)\left(1-9i^{2}\right).....\left(1-n^{2}i^{2}\right)$ $=x^{2}-i^{2}y^{2}$ $\Rightarrow \left(1+1\right)\left(1+4\right)\left(1+9\right)....\left(1+n^{2}\right)=x^{2}+y^{2}$ $\Rightarrow 2\cdot5\cdot10 .....+\left(1+n^{2}\right)=x^{2}+y^{2}$

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.
