1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to simplify several expressions involving complex numbers. We need to perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, and squaring operations on these expressions, remembering that i=1i = \sqrt{-1} and i2=1i^2 = -1. We also need to evaluate square roots of negative numbers.

2. Solution Steps

1

0. $(-2+3i) + (5-2i)$

Combine the real and imaginary parts:
(2+5)+(3i2i)=3+i(-2+5) + (3i - 2i) = 3 + i
1

1. $(-6+7i) + (6-7i)$

Combine the real and imaginary parts:
(6+6)+(7i7i)=0+0i=0(-6+6) + (7i - 7i) = 0 + 0i = 0
1

2. $(4-2i) - (-1+3i)$

Distribute the negative sign and combine terms:
42i+13i=(4+1)+(2i3i)=55i4-2i + 1 - 3i = (4+1) + (-2i - 3i) = 5 - 5i
1

3. $(-5+3i) - (-8+2i)$

Distribute the negative sign and combine terms:
5+3i+82i=(5+8)+(3i2i)=3+i-5+3i + 8 - 2i = (-5+8) + (3i - 2i) = 3 + i
1

4. $(4-3i)(-5+4i)$

Use the FOIL method to multiply:
4(5)+4(4i)3i(5)3i(4i)=20+16i+15i12i24(-5) + 4(4i) -3i(-5) -3i(4i) = -20 + 16i + 15i - 12i^2
Since i2=1i^2 = -1, we have:
20+31i12(1)=20+31i+12=8+31i-20 + 31i - 12(-1) = -20 + 31i + 12 = -8 + 31i
1

5. $(2-i)(-3+6i)$

Use the FOIL method to multiply:
2(3)+2(6i)i(3)i(6i)=6+12i+3i6i22(-3) + 2(6i) -i(-3) -i(6i) = -6 + 12i + 3i - 6i^2
Since i2=1i^2 = -1, we have:
6+15i6(1)=6+15i+6=15i-6 + 15i - 6(-1) = -6 + 15i + 6 = 15i
1

6. $(5-3i)(5+3i)$

This is a difference of squares: (ab)(a+b)=a2b2(a-b)(a+b) = a^2 - b^2
52(3i)2=259i2=259(1)=25+9=345^2 - (3i)^2 = 25 - 9i^2 = 25 - 9(-1) = 25 + 9 = 34
1

7. $(-1+3i)^2$

Expand the square: (1+3i)(1+3i)(-1+3i)(-1+3i)
(1)(1)+(1)(3i)+(3i)(1)+(3i)(3i)=13i3i+9i2(-1)(-1) + (-1)(3i) + (3i)(-1) + (3i)(3i) = 1 - 3i - 3i + 9i^2
16i+9(1)=16i9=86i1 - 6i + 9(-1) = 1 - 6i - 9 = -8 - 6i
1

8. $(4-i)^2$

Expand the square: (4i)(4i)(4-i)(4-i)
4(4)+4(i)i(4)i(i)=164i4i+i24(4) + 4(-i) -i(4) -i(-i) = 16 - 4i - 4i + i^2
168i+(1)=158i16 - 8i + (-1) = 15 - 8i
1

9. $(-2i)(5i)(-i)$

Multiply the terms:
(2i)(5i)(i)=10i2(i)=10(1)(i)=10(i)=10i(-2i)(5i)(-i) = -10i^2(-i) = -10(-1)(-i) = 10(-i) = -10i
2

0. $(6 - \sqrt{-16}) + (-4 + \sqrt{-25})$

Simplify the square roots: 16=4i\sqrt{-16} = 4i and 25=5i\sqrt{-25} = 5i
(64i)+(4+5i)=(64)+(4i+5i)=2+i(6 - 4i) + (-4 + 5i) = (6 - 4) + (-4i + 5i) = 2 + i
2

1. $(-2 + \sqrt{-9}) + (-1 - \sqrt{-36})$

Simplify the square roots: 9=3i\sqrt{-9} = 3i and 36=6i\sqrt{-36} = 6i
(2+3i)+(16i)=(21)+(3i6i)=33i(-2 + 3i) + (-1 - 6i) = (-2 - 1) + (3i - 6i) = -3 - 3i
