I know that there are many people here who are weak in English but "The beating in the enclosures other than glories" completely mystifies me!

If you want to rewrite the solution if a+ bi form, I would recommend using DeMoivre's formula to find [itex]\sqrt{-1-4i}[/itex] first.

Hi m_s_a! :smile:

z^2+iz+i=0 is an ordinary quadratic equation.

Solve it with the usual formula! :smile:

hmm … this makes no sense at all …

write it in your own language, and we'll tell you how to write it in English! :smile:
