Mathematics Question on Complex Numbers and Quadratic Equations

Find the multiplicative inverse of the complex number 5+3i√5+3i$$

Answer

Let z=5+3iz=√5+3i

Then,

z¯=53iz¯=√5-3i

z2=(5)2+(3)2=14|z|^{2}=(√5)^2+(3)^2 =14

Therefore the multiplicative inverse of 43i4-3i

z1=z¯z2z^{-1}=\dfrac{z¯}{|z|^{2}}

=53i14=\dfrac{√5-3i}{14}

=514314i=\dfrac{√5}{14}-\dfrac{3}{14}i (Ans.)
