What's the power of quaternion $[e^{a} * (cos(r) + frac{sin(r)}{r}(bi+cj+dk)) ]^ 2$?

Euler's identity extended into quaternions is:




$q = a + bi + cj + dk$ with a,b,c,d real numbers



for the below: $sqrt{b^2+ c^2 + d^2} = r > 0$, and $frac{bi+cj+dk}{r}$ = $sqrt{-1}$,



$e^q = e^{a + rsqrt{-1}} = e^ae^{rsqrt{-1}} = e^a(cos(r) + sqrt{-1} sin(r)) = e^a(cos(r) + frac{sin(r)}{r}(bi + cj + dk))$




Therefore, what is the higher power of $[e^{a} * (cos(r) + frac{sin(r)}{r} (bi+cj+dk)) ]^ 2$ ?



I found this site on the powers of quaternions, but it doesn't address quaternions in Euler's form.

    Don't say a quaternion equals $sqrt{-1}$ if you just mean to say that its square is $-1$. If there is any standard choice for what $sqrt{-1}$ means (which I would say there is not), it is defintiely not the value in the question.

    I have not stated the quaternion equals $sqrt{-1}$ but that for the following quaternion equations the written $sqrt{-1}$ is $frac{bi+ cj + dk}{r}$. This is the common reference point, as it's lack of clarification can lead to confusion due to it's many possibilities.
