The solution of the equation z - z = 1 + 2 i is
Options
- A3 2 + 2 i
- B3 2 - 2 i
- C3 - 2 i
- DNone of these
Correct answer
B. 3 2 - 2 i
Step-by-step solution
Let z = x + i y Given, z - z = 1 + 2 i ⇒ x 2 + y 2 - x + i y = 1 + 2 i ⇒ x 2 + y 2 - x = 1 , y = - 2 ⇒ x 2 + 4 - x = 1 ⇒ x 2 + 4 = 1 + x 2 ⇒ 2 x = 3 ⇒ x = 3 2 ∴ z = 3 2 - 2 i
