AMC 12 2020b Problem 23

  • Paper

How many integers n≥2n \geq 2 are there such that whenever z1,z2,...,znz_1, z_2, ..., z_n are complex numbers such that

∣z1∣=∣z2∣=...=∣zn∣=1 and z1+z2+...+zn=0,|z_1| = |z_2| = ... = |z_n| = 1 \text{ and } z_1 + z_2 + ... + z_n = 0, then the numbers z1,z2,...,znz_1, z_2, ..., z_n are equally spaced on the unit circle in the complex plane?
