PROBLEM #13: Find the value of x if 𝑥 + 𝑦𝑖 = (1 + 𝑖)12 .

A. 0 C. −𝟔𝟒
B. 543 D. 8
SOLUTION:
Based on the given problem, the value of x can be identified by applying the Binomial Theorem.
Wherein x is the real part and y is the imaginary part. Since the problem is asking only for the
value of x, hence,
𝑥 + 𝑦𝑖 = (1 + 𝑖)12
(1 + 𝑖)12 = 12 𝐶0 (1)12 + 12 𝐶1 (1)11 (𝑖)+ 12 𝐶2 (1)10 (𝑖)2 + 12 𝐶3 (1)9 (𝑖)3 + 12 𝐶4 (1)8 (𝑖)4
+ 12 𝐶5 (1)7 (𝑖)5 + 12 𝐶6 (1)6 (𝑖)6 + 12 𝐶7 (1)5 (𝑖)7 + 12 𝐶8 (1)4 (𝑖)8 + 12 𝐶9 (1)10 (𝑖)9 + 12 𝐶10 (1)2 (𝑖)10
+ 12 𝐶11 (1)1 (𝑖)11 + 12 𝐶12 (𝑖)12
Note that
𝑖 2 = −1
𝑖 3 = −𝑖
𝑖4 = 1
Simplifying:
(1 + 𝑖)12 = 1 + 12𝑖 + 66(−1) + 220(−𝑖) + 495(1) + 792(𝑖 4 )(𝑖) + 924(𝑖 4 )(𝑖 2 )
+792(𝑖 4 )(𝑖 3 ) + 495(𝑖 4 )(𝑖 4 ) + 220(𝑖 4 )(𝑖 4 )(𝑖) + 66(𝑖 8 )(𝑖 2 ) + 12(𝑖 8 )(𝑖 3 ) + 1(𝑖 8 )(𝑖 4 )
Separating the real and imaginary part
(1 + 𝑖)12 = (1 − 66 + 495 − 924 + 495 − 66 + 1) + (12𝑖 − 220𝑖 + 792𝑖
−792𝑖 + 220𝑖 − 12𝑖)
(1 + 𝑖)12 = −64

sin−1 ( 9.155 – 4.169i) = −𝑖𝑙𝑛 [9.155i + 4.169 ± √−65.4335 + 76.3344𝑖]

sin−1 ( 9.155 – 4.169i) = −𝑖𝑙𝑛 [9.155i + 4.169 + (4.1897 + 9.1097𝑖)]

sin−1 ( 9.155 – 4.169i) = −𝑖𝑙𝑛 (8.3587 + 18.2647𝑖)

SOLUTION:
To identify the volume of parallelepiped, we will apply the dot product of “a” and cross product
of “b and c”.
𝑉 = | 𝐴 . (𝐵 𝑥 𝐶)|
First, we are going to find the cross product of B and C:

2 −1 1 −1 1 2
𝐵 𝑥 𝐶 = 𝑖[ ]− 𝑗[ ]+ 𝑘[ ]

𝐵 𝑥 𝐶 = 𝑖(4 − 1) − 𝑗(2 − (−3)) + 𝑘(−1 − 6)

𝐵 𝑥 𝐶 = 3𝑖 − 5𝑗 − 7𝑘
Applying the dot product to obtain the volume:
𝑉 = | 𝐴 . (𝐵 𝑥 𝐶)|
𝑉 = | (2𝑖 − 3𝑗 + 4𝑘). (3𝑖 − 5𝑗 + 7𝑘)|
𝑉 = | (2)(3)𝑖 + (−3)(−5)𝑗 + (4)(−7)𝑘 |
