<h3>
Answer: -i</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
i = sqrt(-1)
Lets list out the first few powers of i
- i^0 = 1
- i^1 = i
- i^2 = -1
- i^3 = i*i^2 = i*(-1) = -i
- i^4 = (i^2)^2 = (-1)^2 = 1
By the time we reach the fourth power, we repeat the cycle over again (since i^0 is also equal to 1). The cycle is of length 4, which means we'll divide the exponent over 4 to find the remainder. Ignore the quotient. That remainder will determine if we go for i^0, i^1, i^2 or i^3.
For example, i^5 = i^1 because 5/4 leads to a remainder 1.
Another example: i^6 = i^2 since 6/4 = 1 remainder 2
Again, we only care about the remainder to find out which bin we land on.
-------------
Turning to the question your teacher gave you, we have,
739/4 = 184 remainder 3
So i^739 = i^3 = -i
<h3>
-i is the final answer</h3>
--------------
Side notes:
- if i^a = i^b, then a-b is a multiple of 4
- Recall that the divisibility by 4 trick involves looking at the last two digits of the number. So i^739 is identical to i^39.
Answer: Perimeter = 22*sqrt(2)
Area = 60.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple a square has 4 equal sides.
It contains (by definition) 1 right angle but since we are not including and statement about parallel sides, it needs 4 right angles.
Answer:
the answer is 800in
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
There are 21 ways to choose the first person, 20 ways to choose the second, 19 ways for the third and 18 ways for the fourth so the answer is 21 * 20 * 19 * 18 = 143640.
