If $\left(\frac{1-i}{1+i}\right)^{100}=a+i b$, then find $(a, b)$

Explanation

$$\begin{aligned} & \text { Given that, }\left(\frac{1-i}{1+i}\right)^{100}=a+i b \\ & \Rightarrow \quad\left[\frac{(1-i)}{(1+i)} \cdot \frac{(1-i)}{(1-i)}\right]^{100}=a+i b \Rightarrow\left(\frac{1+i^2-2 i}{1-i^2}\right)^{100}=a+i b \\ & \Rightarrow \quad\left(\frac{-2 i}{2}\right)^{100}=a+i b \quad [\because i^2=-1]\\ & \Rightarrow \quad\left(i^4\right)^{25}=a+i b \Rightarrow 1=a+i b \\ & \text { Then, } \\ & a=1 \text { and } b=0 \quad [\because i^4=1]\\ & \therefore \quad(a, b)=(1,0) \end{aligned}$$

If $a=\cos \theta+i \sin \theta$, then find the value of $\frac{1+a}{1-a}$

Explanation

Given that, $\quad a=\cos \theta+i \sin \theta$

$$\begin{aligned} \therefore \quad \frac{1+a}{1-a} & =\frac{1+\cos \theta+i \sin \theta}{1-\cos \theta-i \sin \theta} \\ & =\frac{1+2 \cos ^2 \theta / 2-1+2 i \sin \theta / 2 \cdot \cos \theta / 2}{1-1+2 \sin ^2 \theta / 2-2 i \sin \theta / 2 \cdot \cos \theta / 2}=\frac{2 \cos \theta / 2(\cos \theta / 2+i \sin \theta / 2)}{2 \sin \theta / 2(\sin \theta / 2-i \cos \theta / 2)} \\ & =-\frac{2 \cos \theta / 2(\cos \theta / 2+i \sin \theta / 2)}{2 i \sin \theta / 2(\cos \theta / 2+i \sin \theta / 2)}=-\frac{1}{i} \cot \theta / 2 \\ & =\frac{+i^2}{i} \cot \theta / 2=i \cot \theta / 2 \quad\left[\because \frac{-1}{i}=\frac{i^2}{i}\right] \end{aligned}$$

If $(1+i) z=(1-i) \bar{z}$, then show that $z=-i \bar{z}$.

Explanation

We have, $$(1+i) z=(1-i) \bar{z} \Rightarrow \frac{z}{\bar{z}}=\frac{(1-i)}{(1+i)}$$

$$\begin{array}{ll} \Rightarrow & \frac{z}{\bar{z}}=\frac{(1-i)}{(1+i)} \frac{(1-i)}{(1-i)} \Rightarrow \frac{z}{\bar{z}}=\frac{1+i^2-2 i}{1-i^2} \quad [\because i^2=-1]\\ \Rightarrow & \frac{z}{\bar{z}}=\frac{1-1-2 i}{2} \Rightarrow \frac{z}{\bar{z}}=-i \end{array}$$

$\therefore\quad z=-i\bar{z}$

Hence proved.

If $z=x+i y$, then show that $z \bar{z}+2(z+\bar{z})+b=0$, where $b \in R$, represents a circle.

Explanation

$$\begin{aligned} & \text { Given that, } \quad z=x+i y \\ & \text { Then, } \quad \bar{z}=x-iy\\ & \text { Now, } \quad z \bar{z}+2(z+\bar{z})+b=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad(x+i y)(x-i y)+2(x+i y+x-i y)+b=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad x^2+y^2+4 x+b=0,\\ &\text {which is the equation of a circle. } \end{aligned}$$

Subjective

If the real part of $\frac{\bar{z}+2}{\bar{z}-1}$ is 4 , then show that the locus of the point representing $z$ in the complex plane is a circle.

Explanation

$$\begin{aligned} \text{Let}\quad z & =x+i y \\ \text{Now,}\quad \frac{\bar{z}+2}{\bar{z}-1} & =\frac{x-i y+2}{x-i y-1} \end{aligned}$$

$$\begin{aligned} & =\frac{[(x+2)-i y][(x-1)+i y]}{[(x-1)-i y][(x-1)+i y]} \\ & =\frac{(x-1)(x+2)-i y(x-1)+i y(x+2)+y^2}{(x-1)^2+y^2} \\ & =\frac{(x-1)(x+2)+y^2+i[(x+2) y-(x-1) y]}{(x-1)^2+y^2} \quad\left[\because-i^2=1\right] \end{aligned}$$

Taking real part, $\quad \frac{(x-1)(x+2)+y^2}{(x-1)^2+y^2}=4$

$\Rightarrow \quad x^2-x+2 x-2+y^2=4\left(x^2-2 x+1+y^2\right)$

$\Rightarrow \quad 3 x^2+3 y^2-9 x+6=0$, which represents a circle.

Hence, $z$ lies on the circle.
