JEE Main2012MathematicsComplex NumberActual
Let Z and W be complex numbers such that |Z|=|W| , and Z denotes the principal argument of Z . Statement 1:If Z+ W= , then Z=- W . Statement 2: |Z|=|W| , implies arg Z- W = .
Options
- AStatement 1 is true, Statement 2 is false.
- BStatement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is a correct explanation for Statement 1.
- CStatement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is not a correct explanation for Statement 1.
- DStatement 1 is false, Statement 2 is true.
Correct answer
A. Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is false.
Step-by-step solution
Let |Z|=| W |=r Z=r e^ i , W =r e^ i where + = W =r e^ -i Now, Z=r e^ i( - ) =r e^ i e^ -i =-r e^ -i =- W Thus, statement-1 is true but statement- 2 is false.
