Answer:

a. We need imaginary numbers to be able to solve equations which have the square-root of a negative number as part of the solution.

b. (a + ib)⁵ = a⁵ + 5ia⁴b - 10a³b² - 10ia²b³ + 5ab⁴ + ib⁵

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Why do we need imaginary numbers?

We need imaginary numbers to be able to solve equations which have the square-root of a negative number as part of the solution. For example, the equation of the form x² + 2x + 1 = 0 has the solution (x - 1)(x + 1) = 0 , x = 1 twice. The equation x² + 1 = 0 has the solution x² = -1 ⇒ x = √-1. Since we cannot find the square-root of a negative number, the identity i = √-1 was developed to be the solution to the problem of solving quadratic equations which have the square-root of a negative number.

b. Expand (a + ib)⁵

(a + ib)⁵ =  (a + ib)(a + ib)⁴ = (a + ib)(a + ib)²(a + ib)²

(a + ib)² = (a + ib)(a + ib) = a² + 2iab + (ib)² = a² + 2iab - b²

(a + ib)²(a + ib)² = (a² + 2iab - b²)(a² + 2iab - b²)

= a⁴ + 2ia³b - a²b² + 2ia³b + (2iab)² - 2iab³ - a²b² - 2iab³ + b⁴

= a⁴ + 2ia³b - a²b² + 2ia³b - 4a²b² - 2iab³ - a²b² - 2iab³ + b⁴

collecting like terms, we have

= a⁴ + 2ia³b + 2ia³b - a²b² - 4a²b² - a²b² - 2iab³  - 2iab³ + b⁴

= a⁴ + 4ia³b - 6a²b² - 4iab³ + b⁴

(a + ib)(a + ib)⁴ = (a + ib)(a⁴ + 4ia³b - 6a²b² - 4iab³ + b⁴)

= a⁵ + 4ia⁴b - 6a³b² - 4ia²b³ + ab⁴ + ia⁴b + 4i²a³b² - 6ia²b³ - 4i²ab⁴ + ib⁵

= a⁵ + 4ia⁴b - 6a³b² - 4ia²b³ + ab⁴ + ia⁴b - 4a³b² - 6ia²b³ + 4ab⁴ + ib⁵

collecting like terms, we have

= a⁵ + 4ia⁴b + ia⁴b - 6a³b² - 4a³b² - 4ia²b³ - 6ia²b³ + ab⁴ + 4ab⁴ + ib⁵

= a⁵ + 5ia⁴b - 10a³b² - 10ia²b³ + 5ab⁴ + ib⁵

So, (a + ib)⁵ = a⁵ + 5ia⁴b - 10a³b² - 10ia²b³ + 5ab⁴ + ib⁵

An oval track is made by erecting semicircles on each end of a 60m by 120m rectangle. Find the length of the track and the area
vodomira [7]
Refer to the figure shown below.

Because the question states that the semi circles are at the ends of the rectangle, each semicircle has a radius of 30 m.

The circumference of the oval is
2π(30) + 2*120 = 60π + 240 m = 428.5 m

The area of the oval is 
π(30²) + 60*120 = 900π + 7200 m² = 1.0027 x 10⁴ m²

Note:
If the semi circles are placed on the 120-m sides of the rectangle, then similar calculations yield:
Circumference = 120π + 120 m = 497 m
Area = 3600π + 7200 m² = 1.851 x 10⁴ m²

Answer:
If the semi circles are placed on the 60-m sides of the rectangle, then
Circumference = 60π + 240 m, or 428.5 m
Area = 900π + 7200 m², or 1.0027 x 10⁴ m²

if the semi circles are placed on the 120-m sides of the rectangle, then
Circumference = 120π + 120 m, or 497 m
Area = 3600π + 7500 m², or 1.851 x 10⁴ m²
