Question 13582: How do you reduce the following problem into A+Bi form:
(i/(1-i)) + ((1-i)/i)

I tried dividing the first and second part of the problem as separate entities but all I ended up with was ((1+i)/2) + (-i-1) and that didn't really help much.

well assuming that ((1+i)/2) + (-i-1) is correct so far, you are nearly there...

we have 1/2 + i/2 + -i - 1 which becomes
-1/2 - i/2

so, -1/2 - (1/2)i
