![changement x =e^(iα ) z give p(x)=0 ⇔ e^(inα) z^n −e^(inα) =0 ⇔z^n −1 =0 ⇔ z_k =e^((i2kπ)/n) and k∈[[0,n−1]] so the roots of p(x) are x_k =e^(iα) e^(i((2kπ)/n)) =e^(i(((2kπ)/n) +α)) with 0≤k≤n−1 2) wehave p(x) = Π_(k=0) ^(n−1) {x− e^(i(((2kπ)/n) +α)) }](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q39745.png)
