Problem
Find the sum of all complex numbers that satisfy
Solution
Since we can write Then So, or
Let where and are real numbers. Then which expands as Equating real and imaginary parts, we get and Then so either or
If then so If then which has no solutions.
Therefore, the solutions in are 0, and and their sum is
