A Correct answer
Explanation

$|z-1|+|z+3|\le 8$

Using the triangle inequality 
$|z _1\pm z _2|\le |z _1|+|z _2|$
We have $|z-1|+|z+3|\le 8$
$\implies |z-1+z+3|\le 8$
$\implies |z+1|\le 4$
Using triangle inequality again 
$|z|+1\le 4\implies |z|\le 3$
So, the maximum value of $|z _1+ _2|$ is $|z _1|+|z _2|$
And  the minimum value of $|z _1+ _2|$ is $|z _1|-|z _2|$
Hence the maximum value of $|z-4|$ is $|z|+|4|=3+4=7$
 the minimum value of $|z-4|$ is $|z|-|4|=3-4=-1$
Hence the range of $|z-4|$
$1\le|z-4|\le 7$

 is ......................

  1. $\sqrt{3} -1$
  2. $\sqrt{3} +1$
  3. $\sqrt{2} -1$
  4. $\sqrt{2} +1$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

$|z^{2}+2zcos\theta|$
$=|z(z+2cos\theta)|$
$=|z|.|z+2cos\theta|$
$=1$
Now 
$|z|=1$ and 
$|z+2cos\theta|=1$
Now 
$|z+2cos\theta|\leq |z|+|2cos\theta|$
Considering 
$|z+2\cos\theta|=|z|+|2cos\theta|=1$
Hence
$|z|=|2cos\theta|\pm1$
Considering $z=|2cos\theta|-1$ we get the minimum value at multiples of $\theta=45^{0}$
Hence
$z=\sqrt{2}-1$.

B Correct answer
Explanation

Let theta be a real angle of a triangle, so 0 < theta < pi. We are given sin(theta) = (1/i)(z - 1), which means z - 1 = i * sin(theta), so z = 1 + i * sin(theta). Since sin(theta) is real and lies between -1 and 1, the real part of z is 1 and the imaginary part satisfies -1 <= Im(z) <= 1.

D Correct answer
Explanation

$\left| w-\left( 2+i \right)  \right| <3\Rightarrow \left| w \right| -\left| 2+i \right| <3\ \Rightarrow -3+\sqrt { 5 } <\left| w \right| <3+\sqrt { 5 } $
$\Rightarrow -3-\sqrt { 5 } <-\left| w \right| <3-\sqrt { 5 } $   ...(1)
Also, $\left| z-\left( 2+i \right)  \right| =3$
$\Rightarrow -3+\sqrt { 5 } <-\left| z \right| \le 3+\sqrt { 5 } $   ...(2)
$\therefore -3<\left| z \right| -\left| w \right| +3<9$

If $z=a+ib$ where $a>0,b>0$, then

  1. $\displaystyle \left| z \right| \ge \frac { 1 }{ \sqrt { 2 } } \left( a-b \right) $
  2. $\displaystyle \left| z \right| \ge \frac { 1 }{ \sqrt { 2 } } \left( a+b \right) $
  3. $\displaystyle \left| z \right| < \frac { 1 }{ \sqrt { 2 } } \left( a+b \right) $

  4. None of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

As ${ \left( a-b \right)  }^{ 2 }\ge 0,{ a }^{ 2 }+{ b }^{ 2 }\ge 2ab$   ...(1)

But $\left| z \right| =\sqrt { { a }^{ 2 }+{ b }^{ 2 } } ;$ si from (1), ${ \left| z \right|  }^{ 2 }\ge 2ab$
$\therefore { \left| z \right|  }^{ 2 }+{ a }^{ 2 }+{ b }^{ 2 }\ge { a }^{ 2 }+{ b }^{ 2 }+2ab\ \Rightarrow { \left| z \right|  }^{ 2 }+{ \left| z \right|  }^{ 2 }\ge { \left( a+b \right)  }^{ 2 }\Rightarrow 2{ \left| z \right|  }^{ 2 }\ge { \left( a+b \right)  }^{ 2 }$
$\Rightarrow \sqrt { 2 } \left| z \right| \ge a+b$ as $\left| z \right| $ is positive
$\displaystyle \left| z \right| \ge \frac { 1 }{ \sqrt { 2 }  } \left( a+b \right) $

D Correct answer
Explanation

$\left| w \right| =\left| \left( w-z \right) +z \right| $ 
Using Triangle Inequality.
$\left| w-z \right| +\left| z \right| \ge \left| \left( w-z \right) +z \right| =\left| w \right| $
$\Rightarrow \left| z \right| +\left| z-w \right| \ge \left| w \right| $
$\Rightarrow \left| z \right| +\left| z-1 \right| \ge 1$
Therefore, minimum value of $\left| z \right| +\left| z-1 \right| $ is 1
Hence, option 'D' is correct.
