Find the root 4 squareroot 1 Select the correct choice below
Find the root ^4 squareroot -1 Select the correct choice below and. if necessary, fill in the answer box to com ^4 squareroot -1 = The root is not a real number.
Solution
x = (-1)^1/4
x^4 +1 =0
(x^2 + 1.414x +1)(x^2 -1.414x +1) =0
Solve each of the quadratic above:
x^2 +1.414x +1=0
x = (0.707+i*0.707) x = (0.707-i*0.707)
Now solve : x^2 -1.414x +1 =0
x = -0.707+i*0.707 , x = -0.707-i*0.707
Roots are are complex
