is cube root of a number 1, +1 or -1 ? please tell with reason
Answers
+1 will be answer
hope it's help
The cube root of 1 is always '+1', and never becomes -1.
-1 is the cube root of -1.
Let me explain.
Let a number be 'a'.
Let me take its cube.
a × a × a = a² × a = a³
Let me take another number -a and its cube too.
-a × -a × -a = (-a)² × -a = a² × -a = -a³
From here, we get that it's positive sign always in the cube of a positive integer, and it's negative sign in the cube of a negative integer.
So in the case of 1, the cube of 1 is 1, while the cube of -1 is -1.
Also remember the following.
If n is odd, then (-a)ⁿ = -aⁿ, which is of negative form.
If n is even, then (-a)ⁿ = aⁿ, which is of positive form.
And also,
if a is a positive integer,
the sign of a^(1/n) is always positive if n is odd,
and that of a^(1/n) can be both positive and negative if n is even.
Hope this helps. ^_^
