Complex numbers will appear again in this book in Chapter 9,when we study quadratic
equations. The following exercises examine how a complex number can be a solution of a
quadratic equation.


89.Show that is a solution of


Then show that its conjugate is also a solution.

90.Show that is a solution of


Then show that its conjugate is also a solution.

Brain Busters Perform the indicated operations. Give answers in standard form.
