Explanation:
Let
Therefore
and
i.e.
and similarly
and
As
=
=
Hence
=(60√2√58−6+1192√2√58+6)+(60√2√58+6−1192√2√58−6)i
Explanation:
Note that:
|3+7i|=√32+72=√9+49=√58
Since this is not a whole number, the square root of
Note that:
-
3+7i is in Q1, so it has principal square root in Q1 and non-principal square root in Q3. -
Its complex conjugate
3−7i is in Q4 with square roots in Q4 and Q2.
Note that if:
x=√3+7i
Then:
x2=3+7i
and:
(x2−3)2=(7i)2=−49
So
0=(x2−3)2+49
0=x4−6x2+9+49
0=x4−6x2+58
Note that:
(x2−kx+√58)(x2+kx+√58)=x4+(2√58−k2)x2+58
Equating coefficients:
−6=2√58−k2
Hence:
k2=2√58+6
So:
k=±√2√58+6
Thus
(x2−√2√58+6x+√58)(x2+√2√58+6x+√58)
In order for the real part to be positive, we need the first of these two quadratics to be
So using the quadratic formula with
x=−b±√b2−4ac2a
x=√2√58+6±√(2√58+6)−4√582
x=√2√58+62±√2√58−62i
In order for the imaginary part to have poositive coefficient, we need the
The other factor is a little simpler:
(12+5i)2=(122−52)+2(12)(5)i
(12+5i)2=(144−25)+120i
(12+5i)2=119+120i
So:
√3+7i(12+5i)2
=(√2√58+62+√2√58−62i)(119+120i)
=(60√2√58−6+1192√2√58+6)+(60√2√58+6−1192√2√58−6)i
