Answer:

B. 1

Explanation:

Isolate i on one side of the equation.

First, use exponent rule.


\displaystyle \mathsf{A^B^C=(A^B)^C}}


\displaystyle \mathsf{(I^2)^3^4=I^6^8}}


\displaystyle \mathsf{(I^2)^3^4}}

Solve. (by imaginary number rule.)

i²=-1

(-1)³⁴

=1³⁴

1³⁴=1

=1


\Large\boxed{\mathsf{\Rightarrow 1}}}

In conclusion, the final answer is (B.) 1.
