Correct answer: D

  1. Given points

    O=(0,0),A=(1,2)⇒z1=1+2iO=(0,0), \quad A=(1,2) \Rightarrow z_1=1+2iO=(0,0),A=(1,2)⇒z1​=1+2i

    Let B=(x,y)⇒z2=x+iy,x<0B=(x,y) \Rightarrow z_2=x+iy, \quad x<0B=(x,y)⇒z2​=x+iy,x<0

    We are told that △OAB\triangle OAB△OAB is a right-angled isosceles triangle with OBOBOB as hypotenuse.

  2. Interpret the geometry

    Since OBOBOB is the hypotenuse, the right angle is at AAA.

    Also, because the triangle is isosceles, the two equal sides are: OA=ABOA = ABOA=AB

    Now, OA=∣z1∣=12+22=5OA = |z_1| = \sqrt{1^2+2^2}=\sqrt{5}OA=∣z1​∣=12+22​=5​

    So we must have AB=5AB=\sqrt{5}AB=5​ and ∠OAB=90∘\angle OAB=90^\circ∠OAB=90∘

  3. Use vector form

    At point AAA, the vectors are: AO→=(−1,−2),AB→=(x−1,y−2)\overrightarrow{AO}=(-1,-2), \quad \overrightarrow{AB}=(x-1,y-2)AO=(−1,−2),AB=(x−1,y−2)

    Since they are perpendicular, (−1,−2)⋅(x−1,y−2)=0(-1,-2)\cdot(x-1,y-2)=0(−1,−2)⋅(x−1,y−2)=0 −(x−1)−2(y−2)=0-(x-1)-2(y-2)=0−(x−1)−2(y−2)=0 −x+1−2y+4=0-x+1-2y+4=0−x+1−2y+4=0 x+2y=5...(1)x+2y=5 \quad ...(1)x+2y=5...(1)

    Also, AB=5AB=\sqrt5AB=5​, so (x−1)2+(y−2)2=5...(2)(x-1)^2+(y-2)^2=5 \quad ...(2)(x−1)2+(y−2)2=5...(2)

  4. Solve for BBB

    From (1): x=5−2yx=5-2yx=5−2y

    Put into (2): ((5−2y)−1)2+(y−2)2=5((5-2y)-1)^2+(y-2)^2=5((5−2y)−1)2+(y−2)2=5 (4−2y)2+(y−2)2=5(4-2y)^2+(y-2)^2=5(4−2y)2+(y−2)2=5 4(2−y)2+(y−2)2=54(2-y)^2+(y-2)^2=54(2−y)2+(y−2)2=5 5(y−2)2=55(y-2)^2=55(y−2)2=5 (y−2)2=1(y-2)^2=1(y−2)2=1 y=3 or 1y=3 \text{ or } 1y=3 or 1

    If y=3y=3y=3, then x=5−2(3)=−1x=5-2(3)=-1x=5−2(3)=−1 so z2=−1+3iz_2=-1+3iz2​=−1+3i

    If y=1y=1y=1, then x=5−2(1)=3x=5-2(1)=3x=5−2(1)=3 so z2=3+iz_2=3+iz2​=3+i

    But given Re⁡(z2)<0\operatorname{Re}(z_2)<0Re(z2​)<0, we take z2=−1+3iz_2=-1+3iz2​=−1+3i

  5. Now check each option


    Option A

    z2=−1+3iz_2=-1+3iz2​=−1+3i This lies in quadrant II, so arg⁡z2=π−tan⁡−1(31)=π−tan⁡−13\arg z_2 = \pi - \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{1}\right)=\pi-\tan^{-1}3argz2​=π−tan−1(13​)=π−tan−13 So A is true.


    Option B

    Compute: z1−2z2=(1+2i)−2(−1+3i)=1+2i+2−6i=3−4iz_1-2z_2=(1+2i)-2(-1+3i)=1+2i+2-6i=3-4iz1​−2z2​=(1+2i)−2(−1+3i)=1+2i+2−6i=3−4i Hence arg⁡(z1−2z2)=arg⁡(3−4i)=−tan⁡−1(43)\arg(z_1-2z_2)=\arg(3-4i)=-\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{4}{3}\right)arg(z1​−2z2​)=arg(3−4i)=−tan−1(34​) So B is true.


    Option C

    ∣z2∣=∣−1+3i∣=(−1)2+32=10|z_2|=|-1+3i|=\sqrt{(-1)^2+3^2}=\sqrt{10}∣z2​∣=∣−1+3i∣=(−1)2+32​=10​ So C is true.


    Option D

    Compute: 2z1−z2=2(1+2i)−(−1+3i)=2+4i+1−3i=3+i2z_1-z_2=2(1+2i)-(-1+3i)=2+4i+1-3i=3+i2z1​−z2​=2(1+2i)−(−1+3i)=2+4i+1−3i=3+i Therefore, ∣2z1−z2∣=∣3+i∣=32+12=10|2z_1-z_2|=|3+i|=\sqrt{3^2+1^2}=\sqrt{10}∣2z1​−z2​∣=∣3+i∣=32+12​=10​ which is not equal to 555.

    So D is NOT true.

  6. Final conclusion

    The statement which is NOT true is: D\boxed{\text{D}}D​
