Question

In the complex number system, what is the value of  16 i to the power of 4 minus 8 i squared plus 4 ?? (Note:i equals square root of negative 1 end root right parenthesis

hintHint:

Hint:
i equals square root of negative 1 end root is called ‘iota’ or the imaginary number. It is the solution of the quadratic equation x squared plus 1 equals 0 . It is used to denote a complex number. A complex number is written in the form of a plus i b , where i equals square root of negative 1 end root .
Here, first we need to find the value of i to the power of 4  and  i squaredthen put it in the given expression to find its value.

The correct answer is: 28


    First, we find the value of i squared .
    We are given,
    i equals square root of negative 1 end root
    Squaring both sides, we get
    i squared equals left parenthesis square root of negative 1 end root right parenthesis squared
    i squared equals negative 1
    So, we get i squared equals negative 1.
    Again, squaring both sides of i squared equals negative 1  , we get
    open parentheses i squared close parentheses squared equals left parenthesis negative 1 right parenthesis squared
    i to the power of 4 equals 1
    Thus, we get the values i squared equals negative 1  andi to the power of 4 equals 1
    Putting these values in the expression 16 i to the power of 4 minus 8 i squared plus 4 , we get
    16 left parenthesis 1 right parenthesis minus 8 left parenthesis negative 1 right parenthesis plus 4
    equals 16 plus 8 plus 4
    equals 28
    Hence, we get the value of the expression
    16 i to the power of 4 minus 8 i squared plus 4 equals 28
    The correct answer is 28.

    Note:
    It is advised to memorize the values of powers of i , that is ,
    i squared equals negative 1 comma i cubed equals negative i comma i to the power of 4 equals 1 comma i to the power of 5 equals i text , etc.  end text
    We can observe that i to the power of 4 n end exponent equals 1  for all natural number . Also, even powers of  is always a real number n, either 1 or - 1
