MCQ
If $n$ is a positive integer, then ${(1 + i)^n} + {(1 - i)^n}$ is equal to
  • A
    ${(\sqrt 2 )^{n - 2}}\cos \left( {\frac{{n\pi }}{4}} \right)$
  • B
    ${(\sqrt 2 )^{n - 2}}\sin \left( {\frac{{n\pi }}{4}} \right)$
  • ${(\sqrt 2 )^{n + 2}}\cos \left( {\frac{{n\pi }}{4}} \right)$
  • D
    ${(\sqrt 2 )^{n + 2}}\sin \left( {\frac{{n\pi }}{4}} \right)$

Answer

Correct option: C.
${(\sqrt 2 )^{n + 2}}\cos \left( {\frac{{n\pi }}{4}} \right)$
c
(c)${(1 + i)^n} + {(1 - i)^n}$
$ = {(2)^{n/2}}\left\{ {\cos \frac{{n\pi }}{4} + i\sin \frac{{n\pi }}{4} + \cos \frac{{n\pi }}{4} - i\sin \frac{{n\pi }}{4}} \right\}$
$ = \,{2^{\frac{n}{2}}}.\,2\cos \frac{{n\pi }}{4} = {2^{\frac{n}{2} + 1}}\cos \frac{{n\pi }}{4} = {(\sqrt 2 )^{n + 2}}\cos \frac{{n\pi }}{4}$.
