7 In this question you must show detailed reasoning.
It is given that \(\mathrm { f } ( z ) = z ^ { 3 } - 13 z ^ { 2 } + 65 z - 125\).
The points representing the three roots of the equation \(\mathrm { f } ( \mathrm { z } ) = 0\) are plotted on an Argand diagram.
Show that these points lie on the circle \(| z | = k\), where \(k\) is a real number to be determined.
