Answer:

i2 - 9

-85

Explanation:

Conjugate of an expression is gotten by simply changing the sign to the opposite sign. For example, the conjugate of 5 is -5, the conjugate of x+2 is x-2. Given the complex value 2i+9, the conjugate will be -85

Taking their product

(2i+9)(2i-9)

Expand

2i(2i)-9(2i)+9(2i)+9(-9)

= 4i²-18-+18i-81

= 4i² - 81

Since i² = -1

= 4(-1) - 81

= -4-81

= -85

Hence the product will give -85
