Number of ordered pairs `(s)`, `(a,b)` of real numbers such that `(a+ib)^(2008)=a-ib` holds good is

A

A. `2008`

B

B. `2009`

C

C. `2010`

D

D. `1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`(c )` Let `z=a+ib`
`implies barz=a-ib`
Hence, we have `z^(2008)=barz`
`:. |z|^(2008)=|barz|=|z|`
`:. |z|[|z|^(2007)-1]=0`
`:. |z|=0` or `|z|=1`,
If `|z|=0impliesz=0`
If `|z|=1z^(2009)=zbarz=|z|^(2)=1`
`implies2009` values of `z`
`implies` Toal `=2010`
