To prove that \((1 - \omega)(1 - \omega^2)(1 - \omega^4)(1 - \omega^5) = 9\), where \(\omega\) is an imaginary cube root of unity, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understanding the properties of \(\omega\) The cube roots of unity are the solutions to the equation \(x^3 = 1\). The roots are: \[ 1, \omega, \omega^2 \] where \(\omega = e^{2\pi i / 3} = -\frac{1}{2} + i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\) and \(\omega^2 = e^{-2\pi i / 3} = -\frac{1}{2} - i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\). ...
