#z_1^3 z_2^6 = 64#

Explanation:

If #n# is any integer, then for all #a, b# we have:

#(a^b)^n = a^(b * n)#

Euler's identity:

#e^(ipi) + 1 = 0#

Given:

#{ (z_1 = e^(ipi/3)), (z_2 = 2e^(ipi/6)) :}#

Then:

#z_1^3 z_2^6 = (e^(ipi/3))^3 * (2 e^(ipi/6))^6#

#color(white)(z_1^3 z_2^6) = e^((ipi/3) * 3) * 2^6 * e^((ipi/6) * 6)#

#color(white)(z_1^3 z_2^6) = e^(ipi) * 64 * e^(ipi)#

#color(white)(z_1^3 z_2^6) = (-1) * 64 * (-1)#

#color(white)(z_1^3 z_2^6) = 64#

Footnote

The identity #(a^b)^c = a^(bc)# does not always hold.

For example, if #a=-1#, #b=2# and #c=1/2# then:

#((-1)^2)^(1/2) = 1^(1/2) = 1 != -1 = (-1)^1 = (-1)^(2 * 1/2)#
