Find the four complex roots of the equation z^4 = 8(3^0.5+i) in the form z = re^(i*theta)

We know that z=re^(itheta) from the definition of the exponential form of a complex number. Hence it follows that: z^4=(re^(itheta))^4=r^4e^(4itheta) We can find z^4 by converting 8(...

Consider f(x)=a/(x-1)^2-1. For which a>1 is the triangle formed by (0,0) and the intersections of f(x) with the positive x- and y-axis isosceles?

We'll first compute these intersections by setting x=0 and y=0 consecutively. This gives y=a-1 and a/(x-1)^2-1=0. Hence we find (x-1)^2=a, so x=1+-sqrt(a). As we have a>1 and we want the intersection w...

How can you find the coefficients of a monic quadratic when you know only one non-real root?

We know that non-real roots appear in complex conjugate pairs. Hence when we know one root, we know both of them. Then, as we can factorise a quadratic in it's linear factors, we know our quadratic is a c...
