=1/113(8+7i)=1113(8+7i)

Explanation:

(7+8i)^10/(-8+7i)^11(7+8i)10(8+7i)11

=(7+8i)^10/(i^2*8+7i)^11=(7+8i)10(i28+7i)11

=(7+8i)^10/(i^11(7+8i)^11)=(7+8i)10i11(7+8i)11

=cancel((7+8i)^10)/(i*(i^2)^5(7+8i)cancel((7+8i)^10))

=1/(i*(-1)^5(7+8i))

=1/(-i(7+8i))=1/(-7i-8i^2)

=1/(8-7i)

=(8+7i)/((8-7i)(8+7i))

=(8+7i)/(8^2-7^2i^2)

=1/113(8+7i)
