Let s, t, r be non-zero complex numbers and L be the set of...
Let be non-zero complex numbers and be the set of solutions of the equation , where . Then, which of the following statement(s) is (are) TRUE?
Options
- AIf has exactly one element, then \left|s\right| \ne \left|t\right|
- BIf , then has infinitely many elements
- CThe number of elements in is at most
- DIf L has more than one element, then L has infinitely many elements
Correct answer
A. If has exactly one element, then \left|s\right| \ne \left|t\right|
Step-by-step solution
Given
...(i)
On taking conjugate ...(ii)
\left({\left|s\right|}^{2} - {\left|t\right|}^{2}\right) = \overset{-}{r}t - r\overset{-}{s} If \left|s\right| \ne \left|t\right| then has unique value
\left(2\right) If \left|s\right| = \left|t\right| then may or may not be zero so may be empty set
\left(3\right) Locussingleton set or a line in all cases it will intersect given circle at most two points.
\left(4\right) In this case locus of is a line so has infinite elements
