Answer:


1+6i

Explanation:

The expression
1-6i represents a complex number. Particularly, complex solutions can't happen in odd number, for example, the minimum complex solutions an expression can have is 2.

Additionally, complex solutions are related by conjugates, which means the second solution to this polynomial is
1+6i, because is the conjugate of the given complex root.
