Hence,
z
−

=

z
=

(
cos

Therefore,
z

Considering

, we get
cos

Now
z

cos
(
n
π

)
If
n
is multiple of
3
,
Case I:
n
is an even multiple, we get
2
cos
(
2
k
π
)
=
2
Case II:
n
is an odd multiple, we get
2
cos
(
(
2

)
π
)
=
−
2
Hence, if
n
is multiple of
3
, we get
2
(
−

n
Else if
n
is not a multiple of
3
, we get
