Question

If `omega` is a complex cube root of unity, find the value of `(1 + omega)(1 + omega^2)(1 + omega^4)(1 + omega^8)`

Sum

Solution

ω is a complex cube root of unity
∴ ω3 = 1 and 1 + ω + ω2 = 0

Also, 1 + ω2 = -ω, 1 + ω = - ω2 and ω + ω2 = – 1

(1 + ω)(1 + ω2)(1 + ω4)(1 + ω8)

= (1 + ω)(1 + ω2)(1 + ω)(1 + ω2)        ...[∵ ω3 = 1, therefore ω4 = ω]

= (- ω2)(- ω)(- ω2)(- ω) = ω6 = (ω3)2 = (1)2  =1.
