Answer:
1) multiplicative inverse of i = -i
2) Multiplicative inverse of i^2 = -1
3) Multiplicative inverse of i^3 = i
4) Multiplicative inverse of i^4 = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to find multiplicative inverse of each of the following.
1) i
The multiplicative inverse is 1/i
if i is in the denominator we find their conjugate
So, multiplicative inverse of i = -i
2) i^2
The multiplicative inverse is 1/i^2
We know that i^2 = -1
1/-1 = -1
so, Multiplicative inverse of i^2 = -1
3) i^3
The multiplicative inverse is 1/i^3
We know that i^2 = -1
and i^3 = i.i^2
so, Multiplicative inverse of i^3 = i
4) i^4
The multiplicative inverse is 1/i^4
We know that i^2 = -1
and i^4 = i^2.i^2
so, Multiplicative inverse of i^4 = 1
