complex numbers
show that the roots of \(\huge (x-1)^5=32(x+1)^5 are~given~by~\\\huge x=\huge \frac{-3+4isin \huge\frac{2n\pi }{5}}{5-4cos\huge \frac{2n\pi}{5}}\)

Okay, I think that we should first calculate the roots for the function, they will for sure be complex.
yep
Then, you should be able to express those roots in their polar form.
hmm.. idk
can you provide where you got this problem from?
from my book
Hey Admir, I could still use a little help on a subject.
hint: we can rewrite your equation as follows: \[\huge {\left( {\frac{{z - 1}}{{z + 1}} \cdot \frac{1}{2}} \right)^5} = 1\] so we get: \[\Large \begin{gathered} \frac{{z - 1}}{{z + 1}} \cdot \frac{1}{2} = \sqrt[5]{1} = \cos \left( {\frac{{2\pi n}}{5}} \right) + i\sin \left( {\frac{{2\pi n}}{5}} \right),\quad \hfill \\ \hfill \\ n = 0,1,2,3,4 \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \]
please solve for \(\Large z\)
i have done till z after that im not getting
please wait, I'm computing...
I got this: \[\huge z = \frac{{1 + 2{e^{\frac{{2\pi ni}}{5}}}}}{{1 - 2{e^{\frac{{2\pi ni}}{5}}}}}\]
I think that we are in the right way, since I got your result
here are the next steps: \[\Large \begin{gathered} z = \frac{{1 + 2\cos \theta + 2i\sin \theta }}{{1 - 2\cos \theta - 2i\sin \theta }} = \hfill \\ \hfill \\ = \frac{{\left( {1 + 2\cos \theta } \right) + 2i\sin \theta }}{{\left( {1 - 2\cos \theta } \right) - 2i\sin \theta }} \cdot \frac{{\left( {1 - 2\cos \theta } \right) + 2i\sin \theta }}{{\left( {1 - 2\cos \theta } \right) + 2i\sin \theta }} = ...? \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \] where: \[\Large \theta = \frac{{2\pi n}}{5}\]
hmmmmmmmm
