Question 1.


The value of i1+3+5+......+(2n+1) is


  1.     i if n is even, - i if n is odd
  2.     1 if n is even, - 1 if n is odd
  3.     1 if n is odd, i if n is even
  4.     i if n is even, - 1 if n is odd
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 1 if n is odd, i if n is even
:
C

Let z = i[1+3+5+......+(2n+1)]


Clearly series is A.P with common difference = 2 


∵  Tn = 2n-1 And  Tn+1 = 2n+1


So, number of terms in A.P. = n+1


Now, sn+1=n+12 [2.1+(n+1-1)2] 


Sn+1=n+12[2+2n]=(n+1)2 i.e., i(n+1)2


Now put n = 1,2,3,4,5,........


n = 1, z = i4 = 1, n = 2, z = i5  = -1 , 


n = 3, z = i8 = 1, n = 4, z = i10  = -1 , 


n = 5, z = i12 = 1, .........


 


Question 2.


If z is a complex number ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯z1(¯z) = , then


  1.     1
  2.     -1
  3.     0
  4.     None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 1
:
A

     Let z = x + iy, ¯z = x -iy  and  z1=1x+iy
⇒ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯z1=x+iyx2+y2 ; ∴ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯z1¯z=x+iyx2+y2(xiy)  = 1 


Question 3.


The complex numbers sinx+icos2x and cosx-isin2x are conjugate to each other for


  1.     x = nπ
  2.     x = (n+12)π
  3.     x=0
  4.     No value of x
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> No value of x
:
D

sinx+icos2x and cosx-isin2xare conjugate to each other if sinx=cosx and cos2x=sin2x


Or     tan x = 1   ⇒ x   = π4,5π4,9π4, ..........            ...............(i)


And  tan 2x = 1 ⇒ 2x = π4,5π4,9π4, ..........


or                              x  =  π8,5π8,9π8, ..........           ...............(ii)


There exists no value of x common in (i) and (ii). Therefore there is no value of x for which the given complex numbers are conjugate.


Question 4.


The maximum distance from the origin of coordinates to the point z satisfying the equation z+1z=a is


  1.     12(2(a2+1)+a)
  2.     12(2(a2+2)+a)
  3.     12(2(a2+4)+a)
  4.     None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 12(2(a2+4)+a)
:
C

let z=r (cosθ+isinθ)


Then z+1z=a z+1z2=a2


r2+1r2+2cosθ = a2     (i)


Differentiating w.r.t θ we get


2rdrdθ-2r3drdθ-4sin2θ


Putting drdθ=0, we get θ=0,π2


r is maximum for θ = 0, π2, therefore from (i)


r2+1r22=a2r1r=ar=a+2a2+42


Question 5.


3+i=(a+ib)(c+id),thentan1ba+tan1dc


has the value


  1.     2nπ+π3, nϵI
  2.     nπ+π6, nϵI
  3.     nπ-π3, nϵI
  4.     2nπ-π6, nϵI
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> nπ+π6, nϵI
:
B

 3+i=(a+ib)(c+id)


acbd=3 and ad+bc=1


Now  tan1(ba)+tan1(dc)


=  tan1(ab+dc1ba.dc)= tan1(bc+adacbd)tan1(13)


=nπ+π6, nϵI


Question 6.


The number of non-zero integral solutions of the equation  |1i|x=2x is


  1.     zero
  2.     1
  3.     2
  4.     None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> zero
:
A

Since1-i = 2 [cosπ4isinπ4], |1-i|


|1i|x=2x (2)x=2x 2x/2 =2x


x2=x then x=0.


Therefore, the number of non-zero integral solutions is nil or Zero.


Question 7.


The square root of 3 - 4i is         


  1.     ±(2+i).
  2.     ±(2-i).
  3.     ±(1-2i).
  4.     ±(1+2i).
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> ±(2-i).
:
B

Let 34i=x+iy 3-4i= x2-y2+2ixy


x2-y2=3, 2xy=-4   ..........(i)


(x2+y2)2=(x2y2)2+4x2y2=(3)2+(4)2=25


(x2+y2)2=5           ............(ii)


From equation (i) and (ii) x2=4 x=±2,


y2=1 y=±1.Hence the square root of (3-4i)


is ±(2-i).


Question 8.


If c+ici = a+ib, where a,b,c are real, then a2+b2


  1.     1
  2.     -1
  3.     c2
  4.     c2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 1
:
A

      c+ici = a+ib     .........(i)


∴   cic+i = a-ib     .........(ii)


Multiplying (i) and (ii), we get 


c2+1c2+1=a2+b2a2+b2=1.


Question 9.


The conjugate of (2+i)23+i , in the form of a+ib, is


  1.     132+i(152)
  2.     1310+i(152)
  3.     1310+i(910)
  4.     1310+i(910)
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 1310+i(910)
:
C

z = (2+i)23+i=3+4i3+i×3i3i=1310+i910 


Conjugate = 1310i910.


Question 10.


If (1+i)(1+2i)(1+3i)......(1+ni) = a+ib, then 2.5.10.....(1+n2) is equal to


  1.     a2-b2
  2.     a2+b2
  3.     a2+b2
  4.     a2b2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> a2+b2
:
B

we have


(1+i)(1+2i)(1+3i)......(1+ni) = a+ib   .......(i)


(1+i)(1+2i)(1+3i)......(1+ni) = a-ib ........(ii)


Multiplying (i) and (ii), we get 2.5.10.....(1+n2) = a2+b2
