Let \"z=x%2Biy\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then,
\n" ); document.write( "\"z%5E4=%28x%5E4-6x%5E2y%5E2%2By%5E4%29%2Bi%284x%5E3y-4xy%5E3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "In this case,
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=sqrt%282%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=-1\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\"z%5E4=%284-12%2B1%29%2Bi%28-8%2Asqrt%282%29%2B4%2Asqrt%282%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"z%5E4=%28-7%29%2Bi%28-4%2Asqrt%282%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28z%5E4=%28-7%29-%284%2Asqrt%282%29%29%29i\"
