The cube roots of unity when represented...

The cube roots of unity when represented on Argand diagram form the vertices of an equilateral triangle.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
True
Since cube roote of unity are 1, `omega , omega^2` given by
`A(1,0),B(-1/2,sqrt(3)/2),C(-1/2,-sqrt(3)/2)`
`rArr AB= BC=CA= sqrt(3)` ltb rgt Hence , cube roots of untiy from an equilateral triangle .
