Question

Let z1 and z2 be two distinct complex numbers and let z = (1 – t)z1 + tz2 for some real number t with 0 < t < 1. If Arg(w) denotes the principal argument of a nonzero complex number ω, then

Arg (z – z1) = Arg(z – z2)

| z – z1 | + | z – z2 | = | z1 – z|

 |zz1z¯z¯1z2z1z¯2z¯1|=0

Arg (z – z1) = Arg(z2 – z1)

Solution

z = (1 – t)z1 + tz2

z = z1 + t(z2 – z1)

z – z1 = t(z2 – z1)            .....(1)

 

           | z – z1 | + | z – z2 | = | z1 – z2 |                       A is correct

                Arg (z – z1) + arg (z – z2) = p                          B is incorrect

                Arg (z – z1) = Arg(z2 – z1)                               D is correct

            from (1)           z¯z¯1=t(z¯2z¯2)            .....(2)

 zz1z2z1=z¯z¯1z¯2z¯1

 |zz1z¯z¯1z2z1z¯2z¯1|=0                                         C is correct
