-$$( - 4 - 4 \mathrm { i } ) ( - 4 + 4 \mathrm { i } )$$
A) $16 - 16 \mathrm { i } ^ { 2 }$
B) 0
C) 32
D) $16 + 16 \mathrm { i } ^ { 2 }$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Multiplying the given complex numbers $(-4 - 4i)(-4 + 4i)$ results in $16 + 16i^2$. Since $i^2 = -1$, the expression simplifies to $16 - 16(-1) = 16 + 16 = 32$.
