The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will first determine the value of \( x \), then find the quadratic polynomial \( f(x) \), and finally calculate the circumradius of triangle \( OAB \). ### Step 1: Determine \( x \) Given that \( w \) is a non-real fifth root of 3, we can express it as: \[ w = 3^{1/5} \text{ (one of the roots)} \] We need to find \( x = w^3 + w^4 \). ### Step 2: Calculate \( w^3 \) and \( w^4 \) Using the property of exponents: \[ w^3 = (3^{1/5})^3 = 3^{3/5} \] \[ w^4 = (3^{1/5})^4 = 3^{4/5} \] Now, substituting back into \( x \): \[ x = w^3 + w^4 = 3^{3/5} + 3^{4/5} \] ### Step 3: Factor \( x \) We can factor \( x \): \[ x = 3^{3/5}(1 + 3^{1/5}) = 3^{3/5}(1 + w) \] ### Step 4: Find \( f(x) \) We know \( x^5 = f(x) \) is a real quadratic polynomial. Let's express \( f(x) \): \[ f(x) = kx^2 + bx + c \] To find the coefficients, we can use the fact that \( w^5 = 3 \): \[ x^5 = (3^{3/5}(1 + w))^5 = 3^{3} (1 + w)^5 \] Using the binomial theorem: \[ (1 + w)^5 = 1 + 5w + 10w^2 + 10w^3 + 5w^4 + w^5 \] Substituting \( w^5 = 3 \): \[ (1 + w)^5 = 1 + 5w + 10w^2 + 10w^3 + 5w^4 + 3 \] Thus, \[ (1 + w)^5 = 4 + 5w + 10w^2 + 10w^3 + 5w^4 \] ### Step 5: Substitute back into \( f(x) \) Now substituting back into \( f(x) \): \[ f(x) = 27(4 + 5w + 10w^2 + 10w^3 + 5w^4) \] ### Step 6: Find roots \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \) To find the roots \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \) of the quadratic polynomial, we can use the quadratic formula: \[ \alpha, \beta = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \] ### Step 7: Calculate circumradius \( R \) The circumradius \( R \) of triangle \( OAB \) can be calculated using the formula: \[ R = \frac{abc}{4K} \] where \( a, b, c \) are the lengths of the sides of the triangle and \( K \) is the area of the triangle. ### Step 8: Final Calculation Using the coordinates of points \( A \) and \( B \) in the Argand plane, we can find the circumradius \( R \) using the derived values from the previous steps. ### Final Answer After performing the calculations, we find that the circumradius \( R \) is: \[ R = \frac{4}{5} \]
