  1. What is the product (2 + 3i)(2 − 3i)?

    Answer: 13

    (2 + 3i)(2 − 3i) = 4 − 9i² = 4 + 9 = 13.

  2. In triangle ABC, angle A = 30°, b = 6, c = 4. What is the area of the triangle?

    Answer: 6

    Area = (1/2)bc·sin(A) = (1/2)(6)(4)(1/2) = 6.

  3. What is tan(π/4)?

    Answer: 1

    tan(π/4) = sin(π/4)/cos(π/4) = (√2/2)/(√2/2) = 1.

  4. What is the real part of (1 + 2i)/(1 − i)?

    Answer: −1/2

    Multiplying by the conjugate: (1+2i)(1+i)/2 = (−1+3i)/2, giving real part −1/2.

  5. Which expression correctly states the sine angle-addition formula?

    Answer: sin A·cos B + cos A·sin B

    The angle-addition identity is sin(A + B) = sin A·cos B + cos A·sin B.

  6. What is |e^(iπ) + 1|?

    Answer: 0

    By Euler's formula e^(iπ) = −1, so e^(iπ) + 1 = 0, and |0| = 0.
