Got on okay with part a. I understand I need to use the formula a1(1-r^2)/1-r for part b. However I am struggling with proving this as well as c. Any help or links for guidance?
Could it be that you have forgotten a few things?
Am I correct in saying (for b) that r=1/2e^(ipi/3) and a=1 (as substituting 1 for k into (1/4+isqrt(3)/4)^n gives me 1). Putting this into that first formula would give prove the answer required. Does r equal the answer to part a as this is what I seem to have but not sure if that is right or notYou forgot to tell us what you want to solve!
Let's see. I haven't calculated anything, yet.
∣q∣cos(φ)sin(φ)q=2−1ei3π=∣∣∣∣∣∣41+43i∣∣∣∣∣∣=161+163=21=41/(1/2)=1/2⟹φ=60°=3π=43/(1/2)=23⟹φ=60°=3π
So the representation part is ok. I have trouble understanding the part with the sum. q0=1 and q1=q. I have written the formulas the way you need them, starting with k=1.
qn=(2−1ei3π)n=2−nei3nπ
Perfect will have a look at this - thank you for your help!Let's see. I haven't calculated anything, yet.

My mistake, I am sorry. They actually started with k=0 because the exponent in the sum was k−1.Where am I missing the 1 at the start?
