complex numbers - how to compute |aib|2 if given (aib)3



If i know that, for example, (aib)3=5+4i - how can i compute the value of |aib|2 ?



I can take modulus of 5+4i which is 52+42 but i don't know what i'm getting here.




I don't know what's a third root of a complex number here.



Any help?



Thanks.


Answer



We know that |zw|=|z||w|, and so in general |zn|=|z|n.



Therefore, since you know z3, you can take its modulus to get |z3|=|z|3, and raising that to the 2/3 power gives |z|2.
