Answer:

The value of the product of u and v is
2.

Explanation:

Given: The value of
u=1+i and
v=1-i

To find: The value of
uv.

Solution: It is given that the value of of
u=1+i and
v=1-i, then the product is given as:


uv=(1+i)(1-i)


uv=(1)^2-(i)^2 (Using identity
a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b))


uv=1-(-1)


uv=2

Thus, the value of the product of u and v is
2.
