Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(12\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\sqrt{3}-\mathrm{i} = 2\left(\cos\left(-\frac{\pi}{6}\right) + \mathrm{i}\sin\left(-\frac{\pi}{6}\right)\right)\) \(\left[2\left(\cos\left(-\frac{\pi}{6}\right) + \mathrm{i}\sin\left(-\frac{\pi}{6}\right)\right)\right]^{\mathrm{n}} = 2^{\mathrm{n}}\)…
