(b) Let z1 = 12 + 5i and z2 = (3-2i)(2 + λi). Find λ without resorting to division such that z2 = z1.

2

(a) z^2 -
zz^t
(b)1/2(z + z)^2
(c)1/2 [z-z] + [(- 1-z^t)]^2.

Answer 1

(3.1)

$(a)\\ -3ai-(-1-i)b=3a-2bi\\ -3ai+b+bi=3a-2bi\\ (-3a+b)i+b=3a-2bi\\ \therefore\\ -3a+b=-2b\\ b=3a\\ -3a+3a=-2b\\ -2b=0\\ b=0\\ a=0\\ (b)\\ z1 = 12 + 5i \\ z2 = (3 − 2i)(2 + λi)=6+3\lambda{i}-4i+2\lambda\\ z_2=z_1\\ 6+3\lambda{i}-4i+2\lambda=12+5i\\ 6+2\lambda=12\\ 3\lambda{}-4=5\\$

For each last two equation

$\lambda=3$

(3.2)

(a)

$z = −2 + 3i\\ z' = 5 − 4i\\ z^2=(-2)^2+2(-2)(3i)+(3i)^2=-5-12i\\ zz'=(-2+3i)(5-4i)=-10+8i+15i+12\\ zz'=2+23i\\ z^2-zz'=-7-35i\\$

(b)

$\frac{1}{2(z+z')^2}=\frac{1}{2(-2+3i+5-4i)^2}=\frac{1}{2(3-i)^2}=\frac{1}{2(8-6i)}=\\\frac{1}{16-12i}\\$

Rationalizing

$\frac{16+12i}{(16+12i)(16-12i)}\\ \frac{16+12i}{(16+12i)(16-12i)}\\ \frac{16+12i}{(16^2-(12i)^2)}\\ \frac{16+12i}{(400)}\\ \frac{16+12i}{400}\\ \frac{16}{400}+\frac{12i}{400}\\ \frac{1}{25}+\frac{3i}{100}$

(c)

$\frac{1}{2[z-z']}+[(-1-z')]^2\\ \frac{1}{2[-2+3i-(5-4i)]}+[(-1-(5-4i)]^2\\ \frac{1}{2[-7+7i]}+[-6+4i]^2\\ \frac{1}{-14+14i}+36-48i-16\\ \frac{-14-14i}{(-14+14i)(-14-14i)}+20-48i\\ \frac{-14-14i}{(196+196)}+20-48i\\ \frac{-14-14i}{392}+20-48i\\ \frac{-14}{392}-\frac{14i}{392}+20-48i\\ \frac{-1}{28}-\frac{i}{28}+20-48i\\ \frac{559}{28}-\frac{1345i}{28}$
