    Easy: x^3=27 in complex form : 27 exp[2k*i Pi[. So, 3 roots are: 3 exp[2k*i Pi/3]: for k=0 Root = 3, for k=1 root = -3/2+i Sqrt(3)/2, for k=2 root =-3/2-i Sqrt(3)/2

    Olympiad problem? I think not, O-level further maths for me. Roots of a number are always distributed equally around a circle in the Argand plane.

    If I remember well putting those solutions on a complex plane should result in the vertex of an equilateral triangle.

    Once you get 3 the other 2 solutions are simply 3*e^(±2πi/3). (e^(2π/3))³=e^(2π)

    So simply multiply the real root by the primitve cube roots of unity to get the two complex roots

    This is one case where the aficionados of the polar approach could quickly get to the same answer since most would know Cos[2 pi/3] = -1/2, Sin[2 pi/3] Sqrt[3]/2 etc.

    The author, as usual, "forgot" to say when posing the problem in which SET he wants to search for x: among real or complex values. Both the solution method and the answer depend on this.

      ​​@@stvp68No, not necessarily. There may well be solutions in other algebras over other rings/fields/domains. For instance in a Clifford algebra over the quaternions, octonions, split complex numbers, extended complex numbers, dual numbers or a Z[27] field. (But I did not think of solving any of those) The maths world has a lot more space to navigate....

    To the uninitiated, once the word ALL roots are mentioned in a Math problem, the alarm bell sould sound off that the soultion set MUST involve the Complex Domain, eg. 1 can also be represented as 1+0i & even 0 as 0+0i, so a typical algebraic equation can have both Real & Complex solutions....🤔

      @@bjornfeuerbacher5514 To convert the equation x³ = 27 into logarithmic form, we can use the property of logarithms that states:
      logₐ(b) = c ⇔ a^c = b
      In this case, we can rewrite the equation as:
      x³ = 27
      logₓ(27) = 3
      Or, alternatively:
      3 logₓ(x) = log₇(27)
      Since 27 is 3³, we can also write:
      3 logₓ(x) = 3 log₇(3)
      logₓ(x) = log₇(3)
      Note that the base of the logarithm can be any positive real number, but in this case, I've used base 7 (since 27 = 3³) and base x (to maintain the original variable).
