View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
-
Given complex numbers
z_1=2+3i,qquad z_2=3+4i
Let where .
-
Use the given condition
The set is
First compute each term.
-
Compute and
Since we get
Similarly, so
-
Compute
Hence,
-
Substitute into the equation
Expand:
Simplify:
-
Interpret the locus
The equation represents a straight line.
-
Find intercepts on coordinate axes
-
On the -axis, : So x-intercept .
-
On the -axis, : So y-intercept .
Sum of intercepts:
-
-
Check options
- A: hyperbola with transverse axis 7 False
- B: hyperbola with eccentricity 2 False
- C: straight line with sum of intercepts False
- D: straight line with sum of intercepts True
Therefore, the set represents a straight line with the sum of its intercepts on the coordinate axes equal to .
