(-i)³ = (-1)³ × i² × i = -1 × -1 i = i
(±½√3 + ½i)³ = ⅛(±3√3 + 3×3i ∓ 3√3 - i) = ⅛(9i - i) = i
So the complex cube roots of i are -i, -½√3 + ½i and ½√3 + ½i

i = cis 90
The arguments of the cube roots are (90 + 360n)/3, for n = 0, 1, and 2.
cube roots are cis 30, cis 150 and cis 270
I'll leave it to you to convert cos30, sin30 etc to actual numbers.
