For a positive integer n,

Question:

For a positive integer n, find the value of (1 – i)n
(1 – 1/i)n.

Solution:

According to the question,

We have,

$(1-i)^{n}\left(1-\frac{1}{i}\right)^{n}=(1-i)^{n}\left(1-\frac{1}{i^{2}}\right)^{n}$

= (1 – i)n (1 + i)n

= (1 – i2)n

= 2n

Therefore, (1 – i)n (1 – 1/i)n = 2n
