Answer

$z_0=\sqrt[6] 2(cos~\frac{5\pi}{12}+i~sin~\frac{5\pi}{12})$ $z_1=\sqrt[6] 2(cos~\frac{13\pi}{12}+i~sin~\frac{13\pi}{12})$ $z_2=\sqrt[6] 2(cos~\frac{21\pi}{12}+i~sin~\frac{21\pi}{12})$

Work Step by Step

$z^3+1=-i$ $z^3=-1-i$ Polar form of $-1-i$: $r=|z|=\sqrt {a^2+b^2}=\sqrt {(-1)^2+(-1)^2}=\sqrt 2$ $tan~θ=\frac{b}{a}=\frac{-1}{-1}=1$ $θ=\frac{5\pi}{4}$ $-1-i=\sqrt 2(cos~\frac{5\pi}{4}+i~sin~\frac{5\pi}{4})$ $z_k=\sqrt[3] {\sqrt 2}[cos(\frac{\frac{5\pi}{4}+2k\pi}{3})+i~sin(\frac{\frac{5\pi}{4}+2k\pi}{3})]$ $z_0=\sqrt[6] 2(cos~\frac{5\pi}{12}+i~sin~\frac{5\pi}{12})$ $z_1=\sqrt[6] 2(cos~\frac{13\pi}{12}+i~sin~\frac{13\pi}{12})$ $z_2=\sqrt[6] 2(cos~\frac{21\pi}{12}+i~sin~\frac{21\pi}{12})$
