Correct answer: B
Let and we want all real such that is purely imaginary for every such .
We must find when for all on the unit circle except .
1. Use the standard substitution for points on the unit circle
If and , write
Then is purely imaginary. Let us verify this carefully.
Using we get So, which is purely imaginary.
2. Rewrite the given expression
We have Rewrite the numerator: which is not especially convenient.
A better way is to split it as Thus,
Now simplify using so But an even cleaner identity comes from so Therefore, Hence,
3. Analyze real and imaginary parts
From Step 1, is purely imaginary for all .
So in
- the first term is purely imaginary (because ),
- the second term is purely real.
Therefore, For to be purely imaginary for all allowed , we must have
4. Check the value
If , then which we already proved is purely imaginary for all .
So the required set is
5. Match with options
Option B is .
So the correct answer is:
