    To avoid such difficult calculation we can use concept of nth root of unity which says that if x^n=1 then x=e^(2πki/n) where k=0,1,2,3......(n-1) If you put k gretaer than that then roots will starts repeating and also we can simplify them in much nicer form by euler identity which says e^(ix)=cosx+isinx

      The only integer solution is 1, and the others are going to occur in pairs as complex numbers.
      Whenever you have x^n + .... and you're solving, since polynomials split completely over C, you will get n solutions. An even number of them will be complex, and the rest of them will be real.

    X^5=1=1^5X=1

      x = 1 is one solution. Polynomials split completely over C, so there are guaranteed to be five solutions, and since 5 is prime, they will all be unique, and four of them will be complex, occurring in two pairs.
