Perform the operation and write the result in standard form. (2i) 2( 2 i ) ^ { 2 }(2i) 2

A) −2i- 2 i2i
B) −4- 44
C) −4i- 4 i4i
D) 4i4 i4i
E) 222

Imaginary Unit

A mathematical constant represented by \(i\), defined as the square root of -1, which is the basis for complex numbers.

Standard Form

A way of writing equations, such as for a line \(Ax + By = C\), where \(A\), \(B\), and \(C\) are constants.

  • Manage operations concerning complex numbers in a standard structure.

Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The operation (2i)2(2i)^2(2i)2 simplifies to 22∗i22^2 * i^222i2 . Since i2=−1i^2 = -1i2=1 , the result is 4∗−1=−44 * -1 = -441=4 .
