Question 1117284
.
<pre>
The trigonometric form of the complex number &nbsp;"-i"&nbsp; is &nbsp;cos(270°) + i*sin(270°).

The modulus of &nbsp;"-i"&nbsp; is &nbsp;1, &nbsp;the argument is &nbsp;270° = {{{3pi/2}}}.

According to the general theory, there are three complex cube roots of &nbsp;"-i". &nbsp;They have the modulus of &nbsp;{{{root(3,1)}}} = 1. 
The first cube root has the argument of &nbsp;90° = {{{pi/2}}}, &nbsp;one third of the argument of &nbsp;"-i". 
Each next cube root has the argument in &nbsp;{{{360^o/3}}} = 120° = {{{2pi/3}}} &nbsp;more than the previous one. 
Thus the tree complex roots are


  1)  cos(90°) + i*sin(90°) = cis(90°) = i; 


  2)  cos(90°+120°) + i*sin(90° + 120°) = cos(210°) + i*sin(210°);


  3)  cos(90°+240°) + i*sin(90° + 240°) = cos(330°) + i*sin(330°).

Solved.
