If z1, z2 are two complex numbers such that z1+z2z1−z2= 1 and iz1 = kz2, where k Ī R, then the angle between z1 – z2 and z1 + z2 is –
A
tan–11+k22k
B
tan–11−k22k
C
–3 tan–1 k
D
3 tan–1 k
Answer
tan–11−k22k
Explanation
Solution
Sol. Let angle between z1 – z2 and z1 + z2 be a.
\ z1+z2z1−z2 = cos a + i sin a (∵z1+z2z1−z2=1)
Ž −2z22z1 = cosα+isinα−1cosα+isinα+1
Ž z2z1 = (1−cosα)−isinα(1+cosα)+isinα
= 2sin22α−2isin2αcos2α2cos22α+2isin2αcos2α
=2sin2α(sin2α−icos2α)2cos2α(cos2α+isin2α)= −isin2αcos2α
= i cot 2α.
\ iz1 =
(i2cot2α)z2 = (−cot2α)z2
But iz1 = kz2. \ k = – cot 2α
\ tan 2α = – k1
\ tan a = 1−tan22α2tan2α= 1−(k1)22(−k1)=k2−1−2k=1−k22k
\ a = tan–1 1−k22k.
