How do you simplify # ((1 + i)^2 + 2+2i)/ (2+i)#? Precalculus Complex Numbers in Trigonometric Form Multiplication of Complex Numbers 1 Answer Konstantinos Michailidis Feb 8, 2016 It is # ((1 + i)^2 + 2+2i)/ (2+i)=(1^2+2i+i^2+2+2i)/(2+i)= (4i+2)/(2+i)=2*(2i+1)/(2+i)=2*[(2i+1)*(2-i)]/[(2+i)*(2-i)]= 8/5+6i/5# Remember that #i^2=-1# Answer link Related questions How do I multiply complex numbers?
