You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \({\left( 1 + i \right)}^{4} {\left( 1 + \frac{1}{i} \right)}^{4}\)

MathBot Answer:

Evaluated



\(\displaystyle {\left( 1 + i \right)}^{4} {\left( 1 + \frac{1}{i} \right)}^{4} = \left(1 - i\right)^{4} \left(1 + i\right)^{4} \)


Expanded

\[{\left( 1 + i \right)}^{4} {\left( 1 + \frac{1}{i} \right)}^{4} = 16\]


\(i\) is the imaginary unit, defined as \(i^2 = -1\).
