Write the following in set-builder form :-
1. C = {1, -1, i, -i}
Write the following in roster form :-
1. D = {x : x = cube roots of unity}.

1.Consider the following set      C=1, -1, i, -iFind the quation whose roots are  1, -1, i, -iThe equation is given by,     x-1x+1x-ix+i=x2-12 x2-i2                                             =x2-1x2--1     since  i2=-1                                             =x2-1x2+1                                             =x22-12                                             =x4-1Therefore the required set bulider form is given by,     C=x : xR, x4-1=0   


Consider the following set.            D=x: x=cube root of unityFind the cube root of unity.        x=113This can be rewritten as,            x3-1=0Factorize the LHSto get,        x-1x2+x+1=0 Equate first factor to zero to get,          x-1=0x=1Equate second factor to zero to get,     x2+x+1=0Use quadratic formula to find the roots    x=-1±12-41121        =-1±1-42        =-1±-32        =-1±i32    Thus the three roots are 1, -1+i32,  -1-i32So the required roster form of set is      D=1, -1+i32,  -1-i32
