    complex numbers help!

    z^5-1=0\\\\z^5=1\\\\$Let $z={\cos\theta} + i{\sin\theta}\\\\$Using De Moivre's Theorem: $z^5=({\cos\theta}+ i{\sin\theta})^5={\cos5\theta}+ i{\sin5\theta}\\\\$and we know that $z^5=1\:$and$\ \cos\2k\pi + i\sin\2k\pi$ where k is an integer, so$\\\\{\cos5\theta}+ i{\sin5\theta}=\cos\2k\pi +...

    Parametric Q

    ok so choose a point on the parabola x^2=4ay: P(2ap,ap^2). Now let's find the normal at that point. y=x^2/4a dy/dx=2x/4a x=2ap, dy/dx=p so gradient of normal is -1/p y-ap^2=-1/p (x-2ap) Sub (0, Ka) into the equation[since you are given that the normals pass through (0,Ka)] Ka-ap^2=...
