Class 11 CBSE – Complex Numbers (Long Answer Questions)

1. Prove that the square of any complex number z = a + ib can be written as z² = (a² − b²) +
2abi. Using this, find (3 + 4i)².

2. If z₁ = 4 + 3i and z₂ = 2 − 5i, find z₁z₂ and explain the geometric interpretation in polar
form.

3. Express the following in polar form and verify De Moivre’s Theorem for n = 3:
(a) 1 + i
(b) √3 + i

4. Solve the quadratic equation x² + 4x + 13 = 0 using complex numbers and represent the
roots in the Argand plane.

5. If z = a + ib satisfies |z − (3 + 4i)| = 5, describe the locus of z in the Argand plane.

6. Prove that |z₁ + z₂| ≤ |z₁| + |z₂| for any complex numbers z₁ and z₂, and verify it for z₁ = 3
− 4i and z₂ = −1 + 2i.

7. Represent on the Argand plane and find modulus and argument:


(a) −3 + 4i
(b) 5 − 12i
(c) −7 − 24i

8. If z₁ = r(cosθ + i sinθ) and z₂ = s(cosφ + i sinφ), prove that z₁z₂ = rs[cos(θ + φ) + i sin(θ +
φ)].

9. Show that the n-th roots of unity lie on a circle. For n = 6, plot all sixth roots and state
arguments.

10. Solve using complex number method:


x + iy = 7 − 3i
x − iy = 1 + 5i
Find x and y.
