Answer

Ans. 2,(1+√3i), (-1+√3i), -2, (-1-√3i), (1-√3i)

Work Step by Step

Given:-z=64 $z^{1/6}=64^{1/6}$ $z^{1/n}=64^{1/n}[cos(\frac{θ}{n}+\frac{2πk}{n})+isin(\frac{θ}{n}+\frac{2πk}{n})]$ After putting n=6 $z^{1/6}=2[cos(\frac{πk}{3})+isin(\frac{πk}{3})]$ Putting the value of k =0, 1,2,3,4,5 We get $z^{1/6}=2[cos(0)+isin(0)]$, $2[cos(π/3)+isin(π/3)]$, $2[cos(2π/3)+isin(2π/3)]$, $2[cos(π)+isin(π)]$, $2[cos(4π/3)+isin(4π/3)]$, $2[cos(5π/3)+isin(5π/3)]$ We get after solving 2,(1+√3i), (-1+√3i), -2, (-1-√3i), (1-√3i) Ans.
