Please send me a picture of your working by email.

(i)  Write the complex number $z=\left(-1+\sqrt{3}\ i\right)^7$ in the form  $z=r\ e^{i\theta}$  where  $r=\left|z\right|$  and  $\theta=\arg\left(z\right)$  . 

(ii) Hence, prove that  $\left(-1+\sqrt{3}\ i\right)^7=64\left(-1+\sqrt{3}\ i\right)$
