We have to calculate the fourth roots of this complex number:

z=9+9\sqrt[]{3}i

We start by writing this number in exponential form:

\begin{gathered} r=\sqrt[]{9^2+(9\sqrt[]{3})^2} \\ r=\sqrt[]{81+81\cdot3} \\ r=\sqrt[]{81+243} \\ r=\sqrt[]{324} \\ r=18 \end{gathered}\theta=\arctan (\frac{9\sqrt[]{3}}{9})=\arctan (\sqrt[]{3})=\frac{\pi}{3}

Then, the exponential form is:

z=18e^{\frac{\pi}{3}i}

The formula for the roots of a complex number can be written (in polar form) as:

z^{\frac{1}{n}}=r^{\frac{1}{n}}\cdot\lbrack\cos (\frac{\theta+2\pi k}{n})+i\cdot\sin (\frac{\theta+2\pi k}{n})\rbrack\text{ for }k=0,1,\ldots,n-1

Then, for a fourth root, we will have n = 4 and k = 0, 1, 2 and 3.

To simplify the calculations, we start by calculating the fourth root of r:

r^{\frac{1}{4}}=18^{\frac{1}{4}}=\sqrt[4]{18}

<em>NOTE: It can not be simplified anymore, so we will leave it like this.</em>

Then, we calculate the arguments of the trigonometric functions:

\frac{\theta+2\pi k}{n}=\frac{\frac{\pi}{2}+2\pi k}{4}=\frac{\pi}{8}+\frac{\pi}{2}k=\pi(\frac{1}{8}+\frac{k}{2})

We can now calculate for each value of k:

\begin{gathered} k=0\colon \\ z_0=\sqrt[4]{18}\cdot(\cos (\pi(\frac{1}{8}+\frac{0}{2}))+i\cdot\sin (\pi(\frac{1}{8}+\frac{0}{2}))) \\ z_0=\sqrt[4]{18}\cdot(\cos (\frac{\pi}{8})+i\cdot\sin (\frac{\pi}{8}) \\ z_0=\sqrt[4]{18}\cdot e^{i\frac{\pi}{8}} \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} k=1\colon \\ z_1=\sqrt[4]{18}\cdot(\cos (\pi(\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{2}))+i\cdot\sin (\pi(\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{2}))) \\ z_1=\sqrt[4]{18}\cdot(\cos (\frac{5\pi}{8})+i\cdot\sin (\frac{5\pi}{8})) \\ z_1=\sqrt[4]{18}e^{i\frac{5\pi}{8}} \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} k=2\colon \\ z_2=\sqrt[4]{18}\cdot(\cos (\pi(\frac{1}{8}+\frac{2}{2}))+i\cdot\sin (\pi(\frac{1}{8}+\frac{2}{2}))) \\ z_2=\sqrt[4]{18}\cdot(\cos (\frac{9\pi}{8})+i\cdot\sin (\frac{9\pi}{8})) \\ z_2=\sqrt[4]{18}e^{i\frac{9\pi}{8}} \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} k=3\colon \\ z_3=\sqrt[4]{18}\cdot(\cos (\pi(\frac{1}{8}+\frac{3}{2}))+i\cdot\sin (\pi(\frac{1}{8}+\frac{3}{2}))) \\ z_3=\sqrt[4]{18}\cdot(\cos (\frac{13\pi}{8})+i\cdot\sin (\frac{13\pi}{8})) \\ z_3=\sqrt[4]{18}e^{i\frac{13\pi}{8}} \end{gathered}

Answer:

The four roots in exponential form are

z0 = 18^(1/4)*e^(i*π/8)

z1 = 18^(1/4)*e^(i*5π/8)

z2 = 18^(1/4)*e^(i*9π/8)

z3 = 18^(1/4)*e^(i*13π/8)

For this case what you should do is use the following trigonometric relationship:
 tan (x) = C.O / C.A
 Where
 x: angle
 C.O: opposite leg
 C.A: adjoining catheto
 Substituting the values we have:
 tan (60) = long / short
 tan (60) = long / 2
 long = 2 * tan (60)
 long = 3.46
 Answer: 
 long = 3.46
