    See below.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    x^5 = 1

    x = 1^1/5.

    We want the five complex roots of 1:-

    Writing in polar form we have:

    1 ^ 1/5 = cos (2πk/5) + isin (2πk/5)

    The 5 solutions are found by setting k = 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4.

    First one = cos 0 + i sin 0 = 1

    Second = cos (2π/5 + isin (2π/5)

    = 0.3090 + 0.9511i.

    The other 3 can be calculated in the same way.
