D. `[1/p]+2` is 6

Explanation

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the equation \( z^{197} = 1 \) and find the probability \( p \) that \( \sqrt{2 + \sqrt{3}} \leq |\alpha + \beta| \) for two randomly chosen roots \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \).

### Step 1: Identify the roots of the equation
The equation \( z^{197} = 1 \) has 197 distinct roots, which are the 197th roots of unity. These roots can be expressed as:
\[ z_k = e^{2\pi i k / 197} \quad \text{for } k = 0, 1, 2, \ldots, 196 \]

### Step 2: Express \( \alpha + \beta \)
Let \( \alpha = z_j = e^{2\pi i j / 197} \) and \( \beta = z_k = e^{2\pi i k / 197} \). Then:
\[ \alpha + \beta = e^{2\pi i j / 197} + e^{2\pi i k / 197} \]
Using the formula for the sum of two complex exponentials:
\[ \alpha + \beta = 2 \cos\left(\frac{2\pi (j - k)}{2 \cdot 197}\right) \cdot e^{\frac{2\pi i (j+k)}{2 \cdot 197}} \]

### Step 3: Calculate the modulus
The modulus of \( \alpha + \beta \) is given by:
\[ |\alpha + \beta| = |2 \cos\left(\frac{\pi (j - k)}{197}\right)| \]
We need to find the condition under which:
\[ |\alpha + \beta| \geq \sqrt{2 + \sqrt{3}} \]

### Step 4: Simplify the inequality
Squaring both sides gives:
\[ 4 \cos^2\left(\frac{\pi (j - k)}{197}\right) \geq 2 + \sqrt{3} \]
This simplifies to:
\[ \cos^2\left(\frac{\pi (j - k)}{197}\right) \geq \frac{2 + \sqrt{3}}{4} \]

### Step 5: Find the angle corresponding to the cosine value
Let \( c = \frac{2 + \sqrt{3}}{4} \). The cosine value can be calculated:
\[ \cos\left(\theta\right) = \sqrt{c} \implies \theta = \cos^{-1}\left(\sqrt{c}\right) \]
We need to find the angles \( \theta \) such that:
\[ \frac{\pi (j - k)}{197} \in [-\theta, \theta] \]

### Step 6: Count the favorable outcomes
The total number of pairs \( (j, k) \) is \( 197^2 \). The number of favorable pairs \( (j, k) \) where \( |\alpha + \beta| \geq \sqrt{2 + \sqrt{3}} \) can be calculated based on the range of \( j - k \) that satisfies the cosine condition.

### Step 7: Calculate the probability
Let \( N \) be the number of favorable pairs. The probability \( p \) is given by:
\[ p = \frac{N}{197^2} \]

### Step 8: Final computation
From the video transcript, we find that \( N = 332 \), thus:
\[ p = \frac{332}{197^2} = \frac{332}{1996} \]

### Conclusion
The final answer for the probability \( p \) is:
\[ p = \frac{332}{1996} \]
