Let z = x + iy
LHS = conguate of (1/z)
= conjugate of
= conjugate of
= conjugate of
=
RHS = 1/conjugate of z
=
=
=
therefore, LHS = RHS
conjugate of (1/z) = 1/conjugate of z
LHS = conguate of (1/z)
= conjugate of
= conjugate of
= conjugate of
=
RHS = 1/conjugate of z
=
=
=
therefore, LHS = RHS
conjugate of (1/z) = 1/conjugate of z

Mr
oooh i see. so when we take the conjugate in this case, only the number has its sign changed?

It appears to me that you should have also mentioned that |1/z|^2 = (1/z)(1/z)*, and then divide both sides by 1/z. Just looks incomplete to me without it =/}.)
