Let z be complex number such that ∣z−iz+2i∣=1\left| {{{z - i} \over {z + 2i}}} \right| = 1​z+2iz−i​​=1 and |z| =52{5 \over 2}25​. Then the value of |z + 3i| is :

Correct answer: D

  1. Given ∣z−iz+2i∣=1\left|\frac{z-i}{z+2i}\right|=1​z+2iz−i​​=1 This implies ∣z−i∣=∣z+2i∣|z-i|=|z+2i|∣z−i∣=∣z+2i∣ because the modulus of a quotient is the quotient of moduli.

  2. Let z=x+iyz=x+iyz=x+iy Then z−i=x+i(y−1),z+2i=x+i(y+2)z-i=x+i(y-1), \qquad z+2i=x+i(y+2)z−i=x+i(y−1),z+2i=x+i(y+2) So, ∣z−i∣2=x2+(y−1)2|z-i|^2=x^2+(y-1)^2∣z−i∣2=x2+(y−1)2 ∣z+2i∣2=x2+(y+2)2|z+2i|^2=x^2+(y+2)^2∣z+2i∣2=x2+(y+2)2

    Since these are equal, x2+(y−1)2=x2+(y+2)2x^2+(y-1)^2=x^2+(y+2)^2x2+(y−1)2=x2+(y+2)2 (y−1)2=(y+2)2(y-1)^2=(y+2)^2(y−1)2=(y+2)2 y2−2y+1=y2+4y+4y^2-2y+1=y^2+4y+4y2−2y+1=y2+4y+4 −6y=3-6y=3−6y=3 y=−12y=-\frac12y=−21​

  3. Also given ∣z∣=52|z|=\frac52∣z∣=25​ Hence, x2+y2=(52)2=254x^2+y^2=\left(\frac52\right)^2=\frac{25}{4}x2+y2=(25​)2=425​ Substituting y=−12y=-\frac12y=−21​, x2+14=254x^2+\frac14=\frac{25}{4}x2+41​=425​ x2=6x^2=6x2=6

  4. Now find ∣z+3i∣|z+3i|∣z+3i∣. Since z+3i=x+i(y+3)=x+i(−12+3)=x+i52z+3i=x+i\left(y+3\right)=x+i\left(-\frac12+3\right)=x+i\frac52z+3i=x+i(y+3)=x+i(−21​+3)=x+i25​ therefore, ∣z+3i∣2=x2+(52)2|z+3i|^2=x^2+\left(\frac52\right)^2∣z+3i∣2=x2+(25​)2 =6+254=494=6+\frac{25}{4}=\frac{49}{4}=6+425​=449​ So, ∣z+3i∣=72|z+3i|=\frac72∣z+3i∣=27​

  5. Comparing with options: 72\frac7227​ corresponds to Option D.
