5 The complex number \(z\) satisfies the relation $$| z + 4 - 4 i | = 4$$

1. Sketch, on an Argand diagram, the locus of \(z\).
2. Show that the greatest value of \(| z |\) is \(4 ( \sqrt { 2 } + 1 )\).
3. Find the value of \(z\) for which $$\arg ( z + 4 - 4 i ) = \frac { 1 } { 6 } \pi$$ Give your answer in the form \(a + \mathrm { i } b\).

6 It is given that \(z = \mathrm { e } ^ { \mathrm { i } \theta }\).

1. 1. Show that $$z + \frac { 1 } { z } = 2 \cos \theta$$
   2. Find a similar expression for $$z ^ { 2 } + \frac { 1 } { z ^ { 2 } }$$ (2 marks)
   3. Hence show that $$z ^ { 2 } - z + 2 - \frac { 1 } { z } + \frac { 1 } { z ^ { 2 } } = 4 \cos ^ { 2 } \theta - 2 \cos \theta$$ (3 marks)
2. Hence solve the quartic equation $$z ^ { 4 } - z ^ { 3 } + 2 z ^ { 2 } - z + 1 = 0$$ giving the roots in the form \(a + \mathrm { i } b\).
