Answer

$w_0=2\sqrt 2[cos(\frac{\pi}{12})+i~sin(\frac{\pi}{12})]$ $w_1=2\sqrt 2[cos(\frac{13\pi}{12})+i~sin(\frac{13\pi}{12})]$

Work Step by Step

$r=|z|=\sqrt {a^2+b^2}=\sqrt {(4\sqrt 3)^2+4^2}=\sqrt {64}=8$ $tan~θ=\frac{b}{a}=\frac{\sqrt 3}{3}$ $θ=\frac{\pi}{6}$ Polar form: $z=8(cos\frac{\pi}{6}~+i~sin\frac{\pi}{6})$ $w_k=\sqrt 8[cos(\frac{\frac{\pi}{6}+2k\pi}{2})+i~sin(\frac{\frac{\pi}{6}+2k\pi}{2})]$ $w_0=2\sqrt 2[cos(\frac{\pi}{12})+i~sin(\frac{\pi}{12})]$ $w_1=2\sqrt 2[cos(\frac{13\pi}{12})+i~sin(\frac{13\pi}{12})]$
