GIVEN :
TO PROVE :
SOLUTION :
- Let us consider to be the vertices of the equilateral triangle.
We know that, each angle of the equilateral triangle is 60° i.e, .
We have the formula, when the complex number is not rotating about its origin which is,
For, Anticlockwise Direction
As, there the triangle is equilateral, therefore
____________________________________
Now, for Clockwise Direction
Here also,
____________________________________
Now, Multiplying (1) and (2) we get,
Hence Proved .

Now, For Equilateral Triangle,
As is the Circumcentre of the triangle and also the centroid as the triangle is equilateral.
Squaring both sides we get,
(Replacing, by , as we proved earlier we get)
Hence Proved.
