The complex number u is defined by u=1+2i2−a2i, where a is a positive integer.
(a) Express u in terms of a, in the form x+iy, where x and y are real and exact.
(3)
It is now given that a=3.
(b) Express u in the form reiθ, where r>0 and −π<θ≤π, giving the exact values of r and θ.
(2)
(c) Using your answer to part (b), find the two square roots of u. Give your answers in the form reiθ, where r>0 and −π<θ≤π, giving the exact values of r and θ.

复数 u 定义为 u=1+2i2−a2i,其中 a 为正整数。
(a) 用 a 将 u 表示为 x+iy 的形式,其中 x 和 y 均为精确的实数。
(3)
现已知 a=3。
(b) 将 u 表示为 reiθ 的形式,其中 r>0 且 −π<θ≤π,并给出 r 和 θ 的精确值。
(2)
(c) 利用 (b) 小问的答案,求 u 的两个平方根。答案以 reiθ 的形式表示,其中 r>0 且 −π<θ≤π,并给出 r 和 θ 的精确值。

原卷通用作答要求
Answer all questions. You should use a calculator where appropriate.
You must show all necessary working clearly; no marks will be given for unsupported answers from a calculator.
Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place for angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question.
