The equation | z - i | = | z - 1 | , i = - 1 , represents:
Options
- Aa circle of radius 1 2
- Ba circle of radius 1
- Cthe line through the origin with slope 1
- Dthe line through the origin with slope - 1
Correct answer
C. the line through the origin with slope 1
Step-by-step solution
Let z = x + i y z - i = z - 1 ⇒ x 2 + ( y - 1 ) 2 = ( x - 1 ) 2 + y 2 ⇒ y = x Hence, the equation represents a line through the origin with slope 1 .
