Correct answer: D

  1. Let z=x+iyz=x+iyz=x+iy where x,y∈Rx,y\in \mathbb{R}x,y∈R.

  2. Then the given four complex numbers become:

    • z=x+iyz=x+iyz=x+iy
    • z‾=x−iy\overline z=x-iyz=x−iy
    • z‾−2Re⁡(z‾)=(x−iy)−2x=−x−iy\overline z-2\operatorname{Re}(\overline z)=(x-iy)-2x=-x-iyz−2Re(z)=(x−iy)−2x=−x−iy
    • z−2Re⁡(z)=(x+iy)−2x=−x+iyz-2\operatorname{Re}(z)=(x+iy)-2x=-x+iyz−2Re(z)=(x+iy)−2x=−x+iy
  3. So the four points in the Argand plane are: (x,y), (x,−y), (−x,−y), (−x,y)(x,y),\ (x,-y),\ (-x,-y),\ (-x,y)(x,y), (x,−y), (−x,−y), (−x,y)

  4. These are the vertices of a rectangle centered at the origin, with side lengths:

    • horizontal side =2∣x∣=2|x|=2∣x∣
    • vertical side =2∣y∣=2|y|=2∣y∣

    Since they form a square, we must have 2∣x∣=2∣y∣  ⟹  ∣x∣=∣y∣.2|x|=2|y|\implies |x|=|y|.2∣x∣=2∣y∣⟹∣x∣=∣y∣.

  5. The side of the square is given as 444. Hence 2∣x∣=4and2∣y∣=42|x|=4 \quad \text{and} \quad 2|y|=42∣x∣=4and2∣y∣=4 so ∣x∣=∣y∣=2.|x|=|y|=2.∣x∣=∣y∣=2.

  6. Therefore, ∣z∣=x2+y2=22+22=8=22.|z|=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}=\sqrt{2^2+2^2}=\sqrt{8}=2\sqrt{2}.∣z∣=x2+y2​=22+22​=8​=22​.

  7. Option check:

    • A: 424\sqrt242​ ❌
    • B: 444 ❌
    • C: 222 ❌
    • D: 222\sqrt222​ ✅

Hence the correct answer is D.
