Let N be any integer. Then

i^N=\begin{cases}1&\text{if }N\equiv0\mod4\\i&\text{if }N\equiv1\mod4\\-1&\text{if }N\equiv2\mod4\\-i&\text{if }N\equiv3\mod4\end{cases}

In other words:

(1) If N is a multiple of 4, then i^N=1.

(2) If dividing N by 4 leaves a remainder of 1, then i^N=i, since i^N=i^{4n+1} for some integer n, and from (1) we know that i^{4n+1}=i^{4n}i=i (because, obviously, 4n is a multiple of 4).

(3) If instead you get a remainder of 2, then i^N=-1. This follows from (1) as well. i^N=i^{4n+2}=i^{4n}i^2=(1)(-1)=-1.

(4) Finally, if you get a remainder of 3, then i^N=i^{4n+3}=i^{4n}i^2i=(1)(-1)(i)=-i.

Help me solve this problem step by step because I’m having a hard time
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

x=3, y=10

Step-by-step explanation:

in triangle KLN all the angles are equal making it an equilateral trianlge. GIven one side being 6, we know all the sides are 6 including the side with the expression y-4.

this means

y-4=6

y=10

Using the converse of the base angles theorem(meaning we know the base angles are congruent so the two sides are conguent), we know that

6=x+3

x=3

Help plz! (a + b - c)(a + b + c) multiplying polynomials
saul85 [17]

Answer:

a^2 + 2ab + b^2 - c^2

Step-by-step explanation:

When you multiply all the terms together you get a^2 + ab + ac + ab + b^2 + bc - ac - bc - c^2. Then you can just combine like terms and simplify it to a^2 + 2ab + b^2 - c^2. Hope this helps :)
