Class 11 NCERT Solutions- Chapter 5 Complex Numbers And Quadratic Equations – Miscellaneous Exercise on Chapter 5 | Set 1
Question 1. Evaluate ![Rendered by QuickLaTeX.com \left[i^{18}+\left(\frac{1}{i}\right)^{25}\right]^3](https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/wp-content/ql-cache/quicklatex.com-9204b8902fbce319746190720a4ed916_l3.png)
Solution:
= [-1 – i]3
= (-1)3 [1 + i]3
= -[13 + i3 + 3 × 1 × i (1 + i)]
= -[1 + i3 + 3i + 3i2]
= -[1 – i + 3i – 3]
= -[2 + 2i]
= 2 – 2i
Question 2. For any two complex numbers z1 and z2, prove that, Re (z1z2) = Re z1 Re z2 – Im z1 Im z2
Solution:
Let’s assume z1 = x1 + iy1 and z2 = x2 + iy2 as two complex numbers
Product of these complex numbers, z1z2
z1z2 = (x1 + iy1)(x2 + iy2)
= x1(x2 + iy2) + iy1(x2 + iy2)
= x1x2 + ix1y2 + iy1x2 + i2y1y2
= x1x2 + ix1y2 + iy1x2 – y1y2 [i2 = -1]
= (x1x2 – y1y2) + i(x1y2 + y1x2)
Now,
Re(z1z2) = x1x2 – y1y2
⇒ Re(z1z2) = Rez1Rez2 – Imz1Imz2
Hence, proved.
Question 3. Reduce to the standard form 
Solution:
On multiplying numerator and denominator by (14+5i)
Hence, this is the required standard form.
Question 4. If x – iy =
prove that (x2 + y2)2
Solution:
Given:
x – iy =
On multiplying numerator and denominator by (c+id)
So,
(x – iy)2 =
![]()
x2 – y2 – 2ixy
On comparing real and imaginary parts, we get
x2 – y2 =
, -2xy =
(1)
(x2 + y2)2 = (x2 – y2)2 + 4x2y2
=
Hence proved
Question 5. Convert the following in the polar form:
(i)
(ii)
Solution:
(i) Here, z =
=
Multiplying by its conjugate in the numerator and denominator
= -1+i
Let r cos θ = -1 and r sin θ = 1
On squaring and adding, we get
r2 (cos2θ + sin2θ) = 1 + 1 = 2
r2 = 2 [cos2θ + sin2θ = 1]
r = √2
So,
√2 cosθ = -1 and √2 sinθ = 1
⇒ cosθ =
and sinθ =
![]()
Therefore,
θ =
[As θ lies in II quadrant]
Expressing as, z = r cos θ + i r sin θ
=
Therefore, this is the required polar form.
(ii) Let, z =
= -1 + i
Now, Let r cosθ = -1 and r sin θ = 1
On squaring and adding, we get
r2(cos2θ + sin2θ) = 1 + 1
r(cos2θ + sin2θ) = 2
r2 = 2 [cos2θ + sin2θ = 1]
= r = √2 [Conventionally, r > 0]
Therefore,
√2 cosθ = -1 and √2 sinθ = 1
cosθ =
and sinθ =
Therefore,
θ =
[As θ lies in II quadrant]
Expressing as, z = r cosθ + i r sinθ
z =
Therefore, this is the required polar form.

Solution:
Given:
Quadratic equation, 27x2 – 10x + 1 = 0
On comparing it with ax2 + bx + c = 0,
We get
a = 27, b = –10, and c = 1
So, the discriminant of the given equation will be
D = b2 – 4ac = (–10)2 – 4 × 27 × 1 = 100 – 108 = –8
