Hey there,

First, find the square root of the given equation.


√(z)=\sqrt{81(\text{cos}((4\pi)/(9))+i\text{sin}((4\pi)/(9))}\\=9\text{cos}(1)/(2)(2k\pi+((4\pi)/(9)))+i\text{sin}(1)/(2) (2k\pi+((4\pi)/(9)))

Keep in mind that this is solved for k = 0 and 1.

Second, simplify.


=9\text{cos}((2\pi)/(9))+i\text{sin}((2\pi)/(9))~\text{or}~9\text{cos}((11\pi)/(9))+i\text{sin}((11\pi)/(9))

Best of Luck!
