Solution

The correct option is C x2+x+2=0 is the required equation.
α7=cos2π+isin2π=1
S=α+α2+α3+α6=α(1α5)1α
S=αα71α=α11α=1 ...(1)
Product, pq= Nine terms
=(α4+α6+α7)+(α5+α7+α8)+(α7+α9+α10)
=(α4+α5+1)+(α5+1+α)+(1+α2+α3)
=3+(α+α2+α3+α6)=3+S
=31=2 ------ from (1)
x2Sx+P=0
x2+x+2=0 is the required equation.
Ans: C
