Math Problem Statement

Exercises on complex numbers involving powers of a complex number, properties of complex conjugates, solving complex equations, and Gaussian integers.

Solution

Let's break down and solve the problems from the image.

Exercice 1

The complex number jj is given as:

j=12+32ij = -\frac{1}{2} + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} i

This is in polar form corresponding to eiθe^{i\theta}, where θ=2π3\theta = \frac{2\pi}{3}.

  1. Calculer j2j^2

    Use the binomial formula or polar form to calculate j2j^2.

  2. En déduire que j3=1j^3 = 1

    If j2j^2 is calculated, multiplying by jj again should give 1.

  3. Calculer j10j^{10} et j2024j^{2024}

    Using the periodicity property of powers of complex numbers on the unit circle (since j3=1j^3 = 1, then j3k=1j^{3k} = 1 for any integer kk), reduce the powers modulo 3.


Exercice 2

In both cases, determine if the propositions are true or false.

  1. Proposition 1: Si z+z=0z + \overline{z} = 0, alors z=0z = 0

    Justify if the real part of zz is zero when this condition holds.

  2. Proposition 2: Z est un nombre réel

    Use the expression Z=z+z3iZ = z + \overline{z} - 3i and check whether it leads to a real number.


Exercice 3

Solve the equation 4z+(2i)z=3+2i4z + (2 - i)\overline{z} = 3 + 2i

  • Express z=x+yiz = x + yi and z=xyi\overline{z} = x - yi, then solve by separating real and imaginary parts.

Exercice 4

Gaussian integers are of the form a+bia + bi, where aa and bb are integers.

  1. Show that the set of Gaussian integers is stable under addition.

  2. Is it stable under multiplication? Justify.

  3. Is the inverse of a Gaussian integer necessarily a Gaussian integer? Justify.

Gaussian integers are closed under addition, but their behavior under other operations needs verification.
