How many MISTAKES are allowed in a book ? // Hoeveel fouten zijn toegestaan ​​in een boek ?

 Answer: NOT TOO MUCH

Let's take the first problem from a book.

Page 21, Chapter 1 EQUALITIES, Section 1.1 Equalities of one complex variable, Paragraph 1.A, Problem  #1 (in translation)

               "Let  $z\in\mathbb{C}$ such that  $z^2=-3+4\imath$. Calculate:

                       a)  $A=z^2+\bar z^2;$

                       b)  $B=\left | z-\frac{1}{\bar z } \right |;$

                       c)  $C=z+\frac{1}{\bar z};$

                       d)  $D=Re\;z+Im\;z.$"


ANSWER CiP

A. $-6$  ; B. $\frac{4\sqrt{5}}{5}$  ; C. $\pm\frac{6}{5}(1+2\imath)$  ;  D. $\pm 3$.

In reality  $z=\pm(1+2\imath)$


                         Solution CiP
