Correct answer: B

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

  2. Given that the real part of z−2iz+2i\frac{z-2i}{z+2i}z+2iz−2i​ is zero.

    Substitute z=x+iyz=x+iyz=x+iy: z−2iz+2i=x+i(y−2)x+i(y+2).\frac{z-2i}{z+2i}=\frac{x+i(y-2)}{x+i(y+2)}.z+2iz−2i​=x+i(y+2)x+i(y−2)​.

  3. Rationalize the denominator:

    =\frac{(x+i(y-2))(x-i(y+2))}{x^2+(y+2)^2}.$$
  4. Expand the numerator: \begin{align*} (x+i(y-2))(x-i(y+2)) &=x^2-ix(y+2)+ix(y-2)+ (i)(-i)(y-2)(y+2) \ &=x^2 + x[-i(y+2)+i(y-2)] + (y^2-4) \ &=x^2 -4ix + y^2-4. \end{align*}

    Hence, z−2iz+2i=x2+y2−4−4ixx2+(y+2)2.\frac{z-2i}{z+2i}=\frac{x^2+y^2-4-4ix}{x^2+(y+2)^2}.z+2iz−2i​=x2+(y+2)2x2+y2−4−4ix​.

  5. Its real part is x2+y2−4x2+(y+2)2.\frac{x^2+y^2-4}{x^2+(y+2)^2}.x2+(y+2)2x2+y2−4​. This is given to be zero, so x2+y2−4=0.x^2+y^2-4=0.x2+y2−4=0.

    Therefore, x2+y2=4.x^2+y^2=4.x2+y2=4.

    So the locus of zzz is the circle ∣z∣=2,|z|=2,∣z∣=2, centered at the origin with radius 222.

  6. We need the maximum value of ∣z−(6+8i)∣.|z-(6+8i)|.∣z−(6+8i)∣.

    This is the distance between a point zzz on the circle ∣z∣=2|z|=2∣z∣=2 and the fixed point (6,8)(6,8)(6,8) in the Argand plane.

    The distance from the origin to 6+8i6+8i6+8i is ∣6+8i∣=62+82=36+64=10.|6+8i|=\sqrt{6^2+8^2}=\sqrt{36+64}=10.∣6+8i∣=62+82​=36+64​=10.

  7. For a circle centered at the origin with radius 222, the maximum distance from the fixed point at distance 101010 from the center is 10+2=12.10+2=12.10+2=12.

    Hence, max⁡∣z−(6+8i)∣=12.\max |z-(6+8i)|=12.max∣z−(6+8i)∣=12.

  8. Therefore, the correct option is: B: 12.\boxed{\text{B: }12}.B: 12​.
