Q. If (32i)(3i)(2+i)=a+ib(3-2i)(3-i)(2+i)=a+ib, where aa and bb are real numbers and the imaginary number ii is such that i2=1i^2=-1, what is the value of (2a+3b)(2a+3b)?
  1. Multiply Complex Numbers: Step 11: Multiply the first two complex numbers (32i)(3−2i) and (3i)(3−i).\newlineCalculation: (32i)(3i)=3(3)+3(i)2i(3)2i(i)=93i6i+2i2=99i+2(1)=79i(3−2i)(3−i) = 3(3) + 3(-i) - 2i(3) - 2i(-i) = 9 - 3i - 6i + 2i^2 = 9 - 9i + 2(-1) = 7 - 9i.
  2. Multiply by Third Number: Step 22: Multiply the result by the third complex number (2+i)(2+i).\newlineCalculation: (79i)(2+i)=7(2)+7(i)9i(2)9i(i)=14+7i18i9i2=1411i9(1)=2311i(7 - 9i)(2 + i) = 7(2) + 7(i) - 9i(2) - 9i(i) = 14 + 7i - 18i - 9i^2 = 14 - 11i - 9(-1) = 23 - 11i.
  3. Identify Real and Imaginary Parts: Step 33: Identify the real part aa and the imaginary part bb from the result.\newlineCalculation: From 2311i23 - 11i, a=23a = 23 and b=11b = -11.
  4. Calculate Value: Step 44: Calculate the value of (2a+3b)(2a + 3b).\newlineCalculation: 2a+3b=2(23)+3(11)=4633=132a + 3b = 2(23) + 3(-11) = 46 - 33 = 13.
