For a complex number Z , if Z - 1 + i + Z + i = 1 , then the range of the principle argument of Z is (where principle arg Z ∈ - π , π )
Options
- A- π 4 , π 4
- Bπ 4 , π 2
- C- π 2 , - π 4
- D- π 2 , π 2
Correct answer
C. - π 2 , - π 4
Step-by-step solution
Z - 1 + i + Z + i = 1 - i - - i ⇒ locus of Z is the line segment joining - i with 1 - i ⇒ minimum arg Z = - π 2 & maximum arg Z = - π 4 ⇒ principal arg Z ∈ - π 2 , - π 4
