(1 i)x 2i (2 3i)y i
Ex. 1 The values of x and y satisfying the equation i are
3i 3i
(1 i)x 2i (2 3i)y i
Sol. i (4 + 2i) x + (9 – 7i) y – 3i – 3 = 10i
3i 3i
Equating real and imaginary parts, we get 2x – 7y = 13 and 4x + 9y = 3.
Hence x = 3 and y = –1.
Ex. 2 Find the square root of 7 + 24 i.
Sol. Let 7 24i = a + ib
Squaring a2 – b2 + 2iab = 7 + 24i
Compare real & imaginary parts a2 – b2 = 7 & 2ab = 24
By solving these two equations
We get a = ±4 , b = ±3
7 24i = ±(4 + 3i)
Ex. 3 Find the value of expression x4 – 4x3 + 3x2 – 2x + 1 when x = 1 + i is a factor of expression.
Sol. x = 1 + i
x – 1 = i
(x – 1)2 = –1
x2 – 2x + 2 = 0
Now x4 – 4x3 + 3x2 – 2x + 1
= (x2 – 2x + 2) (x2 – 3x – 3) – 4x + 7
when x = 1 + i i.e. x2 – 2x + 2 = 0

z 1 3
z 1
passing through (1, 0) and (–1, 0). Similarly, arg = means that 'z' is
z 1 3
lying on the major arc of the circle passing through (1, 0) and (–1, 0). Now if we
take any point in the region included between two arcs say P1(z1) we get
