ANSWER


{i}^(20) + 1 =2

Step-by-step explanation

The given expression is;


{i}^(20) + 1

Recall that, in complex numbers


{i}^(2) = - 1

We use this identity to simplify the given expression:


{i}^(20) + 1 =( {i}^(2))^(10) + 1

This implies that:


{i}^(20) + 1 =( - 1)^(10) + 1


{i}^(20) + 1 =1+ 1


{i}^(20) + 1 =2
