If " \(2 i\) " is a root of \(f(z)=z^4+z^3+2 z^2+4 z-8=0\), then which among the following cannot be a root of \(f(z)=0\) ?

  1. A \(-2 i\)
  2. B 1
  3. C –2
  4. D 2
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

It is given that, \(f(z)=z^4+z^3+2 z^2+4 z-8\) have a root \(2 i\), so one more root will be \(-2 i\), so \(\left(z^2+4\right)\) is the factor of \(z^4+z^3+2 z^2+4 z-8\). So, \(z^4+z^3+2 z^2+4 z-8\) \[ =\left(z^2+4\right)\left(z^2+z-2\right) \] and \(z^2+z-2=(z+2)(z-1)\)…
