Complex roots... I haven't done these in a while :D
So you're basically looking for all fifth roots of -1, am I right? :D
First, you need to express -1 in polar form.
z is the 5th root of -1. odd root of -1 is -1 even root of -1 is a complex number since 5 is odd z=-1
Well, certainly, -1 is a fifth root of -1, but there are others... For instance, \[\Large \cos(36^o) + \color{blue}i\sin(36^o)\]
