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 .
