If z is a complex number satisfying |z³+z⁻³ | 2 , then the maximum possible value of |z+z⁻¹ | is
Options
- A2
- B[3] 2
- C2 2
- D1
Correct answer
A. 2
Step-by-step solution
|z³+ 1 z³ | 2 But we know that |z³+ 1 z³ | |z|³+ 1 |z|³ So when | z |=1 by AM GM | z |³+ 1 | z |³ =2 Now | z + 1 z | | z |+ 1 | z | =2 Maximum value =2
