1. Given that \(4+3i\) is a root.
2. For polynomials with real coefficients, complex roots always appear in conjugate pairs.
3. Therefore, the complex conjugate \(4-3i\) must also be a root.
Answer:4-3i
2. For polynomials with real coefficients, complex roots always appear in conjugate pairs.
3. Therefore, the complex conjugate \(4-3i\) must also be a root.
