  1. A 1
  2. B -1
  3. C 0
  4. D \(1+\infty\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) -1

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\omega\) is root of \(x+\frac{1}{x}+1=0\), i.e. \(x^2+x+1=0\) This gives roots \(\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1-4}}{2}=\frac{-1 \pm i \sqrt{3}}{2}\) \(\therefore \omega=\frac{-1+\sqrt{-3}}{2}\) and \(\omega^2=\frac{-1-\sqrt{-3}}{2}\) are roots of \(x^2+x+1=0\) Also,…
