If z1,z2andz3{z}_{1}, {z}_{2} and {z}_{3} represent the vertices of an equilateral triangle such that \left|{z}_{1}\right| = \left|{z}_{2}\right| = \left|{z}_{3}\right| then

Options

  1. Az1+z2=z3{z}_{1} + {z}_{2} = {z}_{3}
  2. Bz1+z2+z3=0{z}_{1} + {z}_{2} + {z}_{3} = 0
  3. Cz1z2=1z3{z}_{1}{z}_{2} = \dfrac{1}{z3}
  4. Dz1−z2=z3−z2{z}_{1} - {z}_{2} = {z}_{3} - {z}_{2}

Correct answer

B. z1+z2+z3=0{z}_{1} + {z}_{2} + {z}_{3} = 0

Step-by-step solution

Since, ∣z1∣=∣z2∣=∣z3∣.</p><p>\left|{z}_{1}\right| = \left|{z}_{2}\right| = \left|{z}_{3}\right| .</p><p>⇒ \left|{z}_{1} - 0\right|=∣z2−0∣= \left|{z}_{2} - 0\right| = \left|{z}_{3} - 0\right|.</p><p>Thus,.</p><p>Thus, the given points are equidistant from origin, and we know that the point which is equidistant from the vertices of a triangle is the circumcentre of the triangle.
