Today in class we learned about using DeMoivre's Theorem with roots. We learned that the root affects how many answers you should look for (for instance, square root has 2 answers, and cube root has 3). We also learned that in order to find the other answers after using DeMoivre's Theorem, you have to divide 360 (or 2 pi for radians) by the number of answers that you need and add that number to the theta you had until you have the number of answers you need. After that, the answers will start to repeat.
