If n is a positive integer, the complex number has exactly n distinct n th roots.

The roots are , where

(a)

The complex number is .

First convert the complex number into trigonometric form.

 Compare the complex number with a + ib.

a = 0 and b = 1.

a = 0  so, the angle is :

The trigonometric form of is .

Fourth roots of  are :

, here n = 4 and k = 0, 1, 2 and 3.

The four roots are :

 for k = 0,

for k = 1,

for k = 2,

, and

for k = 3,

(b)

The complex roots are plotted as an absolute value of 1.0023 :

(c)

The standard form of the roots:

(a) The four roots are  :

(b) The graph is :

(c) The standard form of the roots:
