i) Let z = 32(cos 280° + i sin 280°) = 32{cos(k*360° + 280°) + isin(k*360° + 280°)},
\n" ); document.write( "where k is an integer. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "ii) ==> z^(1/5) = [32{cos(k*360° + 280°) + isin(k*360° + 280°)}]^(1/5) \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "==> z^(1/5) = 2[cos{(k*360° + 280°)/5} + isin{(k*360° + 280°)/5}]
\n" ); document.write( "[Application of De-Moievere's theorem] \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "==> z^(1/5) = 2[cos(72k + 56) + isin(72k + 56)] \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We can now get the 5 roots, by assigning k = 0, 1, 2, 3 & 4 \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "When k = 0, 1st root = 2(cos 56° + isin 56°)
\n" ); document.write( "When k = 1, 2nd root = 2(cos 128° + isin 128°)
\n" ); document.write( "When k = 2, 3rd root = 2(cos 200° + isin200°)
\n" ); document.write( "When k = 3, 4th root = 2(cos 272° + isin 272°)
\n" ); document.write( "When k = 4, 5th root = 2(cos 344° + isin344°)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
