If you roll six sided dice what are the odds of rolling doubles

Ludmilka [50]

Answer: 16.7%

There are 6 ways we can roll doubles out of a possible 36 rolls (6 x 6), for a probability of 6/36, or 1/6, on any roll of two fair dice. So you have a 16.7% probability of rolling doubles with 2 fair six-sided dice.

Second Answer : 6/36

Out of the 6^2 = 36 outcomes, there is only 6 that are doubles (double 1,double 2,… double 6). Therefore the probability is 6/36 i 1/6.

Find the complex fourth roots of 81(cos(3pi/8) + i sin(3pi/8))

BartSMP [9]

By using De Moivre's theorem:

If we have the complex number ⇒ z = a ( cos θ + i sin θ)
∴ $\sqrt[n]{z} = \sqrt[n]{a} \ (cos \ \frac{\theta + 360K}{n} + i \ sin \ \frac{\theta +360k}{n} )$
k= 0, 1 , 2, ..... , (n-1)

For The given complex number ⇒ z = 81(cos(3π/8) + i sin(3π/8))


Part (A) find the modulus for all of the fourth roots

∴ The modulus of the given complex number = l z l = 81

∴ The modulus of the fourth root = $\sqrt[4]{z} = \sqrt[4]{81} = 3$

Part (b) find the angle for each of the four roots

The angle of the given complex number = $\frac{3 \pi}{8}$
There is four roots and the angle between each root = $\frac{2 \pi}{4} = \frac{\pi}{2}$
The angle of the first root = $\frac{ \frac{3 \pi}{8} }{4} = \frac{3 \pi}{32}$
The angle of the second root = $\frac{3\pi}{32} + \frac{\pi}{2} = \frac{19\pi}{32}$
The angle of the third root = $\frac{19\pi}{32} + \frac{\pi}{2} = \frac{35\pi}{32}$
The angle of the fourth root = $\frac{35\pi}{32} + \frac{\pi}{2} = \frac{51\pi}{32}$

Part (C): find all of the fourth roots of this

The first root = $z_{1} = 3 ( cos \ \frac{3\pi}{32} + i \ sin \ \frac{3\pi}{32})$
The second root = $z_{2} = 3 ( cos \ \frac{19\pi}{32} + i \ sin \ \frac{19\pi}{32})$

The third root = $z_{3} = 3 ( cos \ \frac{35\pi}{32} + i \ sin \ \frac{35\pi}{32})$
The fourth root = $z_{4} = 3 ( cos \ \frac{51\pi}{32} + i \ sin \ \frac{51\pi}{32})$
