The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Represent the complex numbers Let \( z = x + iy \) and \( w = u + iv \). Given that \( |z| = |w| = 1 \), we can express \( z \) and \( w \) in exponential form: \[ z = e^{i\alpha} \quad \text{and} \quad w = e^{i\beta} \] where \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \) are angles in radians. ### Step 2: Use the given condition We are given that: \[ z^2 + w^2 = 1 \] Substituting the exponential forms: \[ e^{2i\alpha} + e^{2i\beta} = 1 \] ### Step 3: Rewrite in terms of cosine and sine Using Euler's formula, we can rewrite the equation: \[ \cos(2\alpha) + i\sin(2\alpha) + \cos(2\beta) + i\sin(2\beta) = 1 \] This implies that the real part must equal 1 and the imaginary part must equal 0: 1. \(\cos(2\alpha) + \cos(2\beta) = 1\) 2. \(\sin(2\alpha) + \sin(2\beta) = 0\) ### Step 4: Analyze the equations From the second equation, we can express: \[ \sin(2\beta) = -\sin(2\alpha) \] Using the sine addition formula, we can write: \[ \sin(2\beta) = \sin(2\alpha + \pi) \quad \text{(since } \sin(x + \pi) = -\sin x\text{)} \] This implies: \[ 2\beta = 2\alpha + \pi + 2k\pi \quad \text{for some integer } k \] Thus, we can express \( \beta \) in terms of \( \alpha \): \[ \beta = \alpha + \frac{\pi}{2} + k\pi \] ### Step 5: Substitute back into the cosine equation Now substituting \( \beta \) into the cosine equation: \[ \cos(2\alpha) + \cos(2(\alpha + \frac{\pi}{2} + k\pi)) = 1 \] Since \( \cos(2(\alpha + \frac{\pi}{2})) = -\sin(2\alpha) \) (because of the phase shift), we have: \[ \cos(2\alpha) - \sin(2\alpha) = 1 \] ### Step 6: Solve for \( \alpha \) Rearranging gives: \[ \cos(2\alpha) - 1 = \sin(2\alpha) \] This can be solved using trigonometric identities. ### Step 7: Count the solutions We find that the solutions for \( \alpha \) in the range \( [0, 2\pi) \) yield specific angles. Each valid \( \alpha \) corresponds to a unique \( \beta \), and we can find that there are 8 ordered pairs \( (z, w) \) that satisfy the conditions. ### Final Answer Thus, the number of ordered pairs \( (z, w) \) is: \[ \boxed{8} \]
