  • question_answer
    If \[\omega \] is a cube root of unity, then \[{{(1+\omega )}^{3}}-{{(1+{{\omega }^{2}})}^{3}}=\]

    A) 0

    B) \[\omega \]

    C) \[{{\omega }^{2}}\]

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[{{(1+\omega )}^{3}}-{{(1+{{\omega }^{2}})}^{3}}={{(-{{\omega }^{2}})}^{3}}-{{(-\omega )}^{3}}\] \[=-{{\omega }^{6}}+{{\omega }^{3}}=-{{\omega }^{3}}{{\omega }^{3}}+{{\omega }^{3}}=-1+1=0\]
