If 1,alpha(1),alpha(2),…………….,alpha(n-1)...

If `1,alpha_(1),alpha_(2),…………….,alpha_(n-1)` are `n^(th)` roots of unity and n is an even natural number, then
`(1+alpha_(1))(1+alpha_(2))(1+alpha_(3))……(1+alpha_(n-1))` equals

A

1

B

0

C

`-1`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
If n is even, then RHS in (ii) (illustration 1) will be zero.
`therefore (1+alpha_(1))(1+alpha_(2))….(1+alpha_(n-1))=0`
