Answer:

$The\ simplified\ form\ of\ the\ \frac{5 + 6i}{4 + 6i}\ is\ \frac{56-6i}{52}.$

Option (C) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

As the expression given in the question as follows.

$= \frac{5 + 6i}{4 + 6i}$

Now rationalize the expression.

$= \frac{5 + 6i\times 4 - 6i}{4 + 6i\times 4 - 6i}$

Using the formula

a² - b² = (a - b) (a + b)

Using in the above

$= \frac{5 + 6i\times 4 - 6i}{(4)^{2} - (6i)^{2}}$

$= \frac{5\times 4-5\times 6i+6i\times 4-36\ i^{2}}{16 - 36(i)^{2}}$

As i² = -1

$= \frac{20-30i+24i+36}{16 + 36}$

$= \frac{56-6i}{52}$

$Therefore\ the\ simplified\ form\ of\ the\ \frac{5 + 6i}{4 + 6i}\ is\ \frac{56-6i}{52}.$

Option (C) is correct .

Im assuming you mean the sides of a triangle which the answer would be no as 1+4 does not equal to 25. (A2+b2=c2) for a right triangle
