Complex Numbers and Their Properties

The video tutorial explains how to solve the equation Z to the power of 8 minus 1 equals zero using complex numbers. It covers the modulus and polar form of complex numbers, and demonstrates how to find the eight roots of the equation. The tutorial concludes with a visualization of these roots on the unit circle, showing their positions at equal intervals.
