Let z1 and z2 be two complex numbers such that and . Then :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
-
Let where and .
-
Given Taking arguments on both sides: Now, Hence, So, \theta_1 = \theta_2 - \frac{\pi}{2} \pmod{2\pi}. \tag{1}
-
Also given Therefore, Since , \theta_1 + \theta_2 = \pi \pmod{2\pi}. \tag{2}
-
Substitute (1) into (2): Thus, So possible principal values are Neither matches options A or B.
-
Now find using (1): If , then If , then
-
Check which option is consistent with the principal argument condition Since the argument is specified as (not ), take This is satisfied by
-
Therefore, So the correct option is C.
