Question

If for z as real or complex,1+z2+z48=C0+C1z2+C2z4++C16z32,then 

Moderate
Solution

1+z2+z48=C0+C1z2+C2z4++C16z32            (1)
Putting z = i, where i=1,
(11+1)8=C0C1+C2C3++C16
or   C0C1+C2C3++C16=1
Also, putting z=ω,
1+ω2+ω48=C0+C1ω2+C2ω4++C16ω32
or  C0+C1ω2+C2ω+C3++C16ω2=0           (2)
Putting x=ω2,
1+ω4+ω88=C0+C1ω4+C2ω8++C16ω64
or    C0+C1ω+C2ω2++C16ω=0               (3)
Putting x = 1  
            38=C0+C1+C2++C16                  (4)
Adding (2), (3) and (4), we have
    3C0+C3++C15=38
or    C0+C3++C15=37
Similarly, first multiplying (1) by z and then putting 1,ω,ω2and adding, we get
C1+C4+C7+C10+C13+C16=37
Multiplying (1) z2 and then putting 1, ω,ω2and adding,
We get C2+C5+C8+C11+C14=37
