JEE Mains · Maths · STD 11 - 4.1 complex nubers

Let \(z = {\left( {\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2} + \frac{i}{2}} \right)^5} + {\left( {\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2} - \frac{i}{2}} \right)^5}\) If \(R(z)\) and \(I(z)\) respectively denote the real and imaginary parts of \(z\), then

  1. A \(R(z) = -3\)
  2. B \(R(z) > 0\) and \(I(z) > 0\)
  3. C \(R(z) < 0\) and \(I(z) > 0\)
  4. D \(I(z) = 0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(I(z) = 0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\({\left( {\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2}\, + \,\frac{i}{2}} \right)^5}\, = \,{\left( {{e^{i\frac{\pi }{6}}}} \right)^5}\, = \,{e^{i5\pi /6}}\) \({\left( {\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2}\, - \,\frac{i}{2}} \right)^5}\, = \,{\left( {{e^{i\frac{- \pi }{6}}}} \right)^5}\, = \,{e^{-i5\pi /6}}\)…
