Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\frac{11 \pi}{3}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(z=1-i \sqrt{3}\) positive argument of \(z\) is \(2 \pi-\frac{\pi}{3}=\frac{5 \pi}{3}\) \[ \therefore \quad z=\left(\cos \frac{5 \pi}{3}+i \sin \frac{5 \pi}{3}\right) \] Cube root of \(z\) is…
