  1. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
  2. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
  3. Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:
    +close
    
  4. Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations
  5. Do not ping the mods, unless someone is breaking the rules.
  6. If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:

Do you know the biquadratic root of 256?

cold lynx
#

yh

#

idk what to do with the negative or is r=4i

somber fulcrum
cold lynx
#

4

somber fulcrum
cold lynx
#

how

#

holy shit

somber fulcrum
cold lynx
#

wait i think i see what i need to do

#

alr holdd up

#

nvm in tweaking

somber fulcrum
#

16i = rcis(theta).

#

Find arg(16i).

#

Do you know it?

cold lynx
#

wait so after r^4cis(4theta)=-256 then what

#

wait now i got the asnwer

#

its just 4cispie

somber fulcrum
#

Also z = 16i?

#

z^4 = -256.

cold lynx
#

im confused on biquadratic u dont need to do that

somber fulcrum
#

How do you find z?

cold lynx
#

u have to find it in cis form so u the theorem and expan so -256=r^4(cos4theta+isin4theta)

#

and pie is -1,0

#

so

#

4cis(pie)=-256

#

4cis(pie)=z^4 and then u just solve for z

somber fulcrum
#

Bro z^4 = -256.

#

They said z = rcis(theta).

cold lynx
#

yh

somber fulcrum
#

Why square on both sides twice?

cold lynx
#

bro

#

do you know polar form?

somber fulcrum
#

It's easier to do it normally.

somber fulcrum
cold lynx
somber fulcrum
#

Yea.

#

Just r^n(cos(theta) + isin(theta)) that one?

#

= z^n.

cold lynx
#

no it isnt

#

r^n(cos(ntheta) + isin(ntheta))

somber fulcrum
cold lynx
#

alr 👍🏿

somber fulcrum
#

Anyway you gonna continue?

cold lynx
#

uh

#

so its r^n(cos(theta) + isin(theta))

#

=-256

#

and thats 256x-1

#

so 256=z^4

#

and (cos(4theta) + isin(4theta))=-1

#

and u get ur answer

#

then sub 0-3 to get values

somber fulcrum
#

Oh ok.

cold lynx
#

yh

somber fulcrum
#

I was thinking of doing it by doing the biquadratic but this works too.
