Work Step by Step
See: Properties of Roots of Polynomial Equations (page 382)
1. If a polynomial equation....
2. If $a+bi$ is a root of a polynomial equation with real coefficients $(b\neq 0)$, then the imaginary number $a-bi$ is also a root.
Imaginary roots, if they exist, occur in conjugate pairs.
