Solve each equation over the set of complex numbers, find the magnitudes of the solutions and draw them in the complex plane. Hint: For some of the equations , to get n roots you must use a3+b3=(a+b)(a2ab+b2) and a3b3=(ab)(a2+ab+b2)

Here x61=0
(x3)2(1)2=((x3)(1))(x3+1)
using the formula (a2b2=(ab)(a+b))
x61=(x31)(x3+1)
=(x1)(x2+x+1)(x+1)(x2+1x)
=(x1)(x+1)(x2+x+1)(x2x+1)
x2+x+1=0
x=1±142=1±3i2
x2x+1=0
x=1±142
x=1±3i2
x=1,1,1+3i2,13i2,1+3i2,13i2
Magnitude is (1)6=1
