Complex Numbers
We now get the set of complex numbers a + bi where a and b
are real numbers. If z = a + bi is a complex number, we call a
the real part and bi the imaginary part.

Find the three cube roots of −8i = 8 cis 270◦
DeMoivre’s Theorem: To find the roots of a complex number,
take the root of the length, and divide the angle by the root.
Note: Since you will be dividing by 3, to find all answers
between 0◦ and 360◦ , we will want to begin with initial angles
for three full circles.
