Under multiplication, the nth roots of unity form which type of group?
AA non-abelian group
BA cyclic abelian group
CAn infinite free group
DA group with no identity
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. A cyclic abelian group
Every nth root is a power of a primitive root, so the group is cyclic of order n.
