Opsective Marteriar Required: To inerpret geometrically the meaning Cardboard, chart paper, sketch pen, of j= J—1 and its integral powers. aes a ae adhesive, nails, MErtHOD OF ConsTRUCTION . Paste a chart paper on the cardboard of a convenient size. N . Draw two mutually perpendicular lines X’X and Y’Y interesting at the point oO . Take a thread of a unit length representing the number | along OX . Fix one end of the thread to the nail at 0 and the other end at A as shown in the figure. 4. Set free the other end of the thread at A and rotate the thread through angles of 90°, 180°, 270° and 360° and mark the free end of the thread in different cases as A,, A,, A, and A,, respectively, as shown in the figure. DEMONSTRATION 1. In the argand plane, OA, OA,, OA,, OA,, OA, represent, respectively, 1,i,-1,-i,1 2. OA, =i=1x i,OA,=—15= ix ?, OA,=-i=ixixi=and soon. Each time, rotation of OA by 90° is equivalent to multiplication by i, Thus, i is referred to as the multiplying factor for a rotation of 90°. OBSERVATION 1. On rotating OA through 90°, OA,=1xi=__! 2. On rotating OA through an angle of 180°, OA, = 1 x_i_ x 1. Ix_toox ft x is 4. On rotating OA through 360° (4 right angles), OA,=1x__ fx fi x ft xis . On rotating OA through »-right angles w i x_t xt xi x wn times = APPLICATION This activity may be used to evaluate any integral power of i.
