i need some help on my math homework.

1.) if z + 1 / z = -8 + 9i , simplify z^2 + 1 / (z^2) and z^3 + 1 / (z^3)

2.) Let a and z be a real number and z = ( a-i / 1+i )^2 . a = ?

thanks

(1a) if z + 1 / z = -8 + 9i , simplify z^2 + 1 / z^2

Square both sides:

(z + 1/z)^2 = z^2 + 1/z^2 + 2

= (-8 + 9i)^2

= 64 - 81 - 144i

= -17 - 144i

=> z^2 + 1/z^2 = -19 - 144i




(2b) z^3 + 1 / (z^3) = ?

= (z + 1/z)*(z^2 - 1 + 1/z^2)

= (-8 + 9i)*(-19 - 144i - 1)

= (8 - 9i)*(20 + 144i)

= 4*(8 - 9i)*(5 + 36i)

= 4*(40 + 9*36 - 45i + 8*36i)

= 4*(364 + 243i)




(2) Let a and z be a real number and z = [(a-i) / (1+i)]^2 . a = ?

z = (a-i)^2/(1+i)^2

= (a^2 - 2ai - 1)/(1 - 2i - 1)

= [(a^2-1)-2ai]/(-2i)

= [(a^2-1)-2ai]i/(-2i^2)

= [2a + (a^2-1)i]/2

= a + (a^2-1)i/2

= real

=> a^2 = 1

=> a = +-1

=> a = z = +-1
