Question
The maximum distance from the origin of coordinates to the point z satisfying the equation z+1z=a is
Options:
A .  12(2√(a2+1)+a)
B .  12(2√(a2+2)+a)
C .  12(2√(a2+4)+a)
D .  None of these
Answer: Option C
:
C
let z=r (cosθ+isinθ)
Then z+1z=a z+1z2=a2
r2+1r2+2cosθ = a2 (i)
Differentiating w.r.t θ we get
2rdrdθ-2r3drdθ-4sin2θ
Putting drdθ=0, we get θ=0,π2
r is maximum for θ = 0, π2, therefore from (i)
r2+1r22=a2r1r=ar=a+2a2+42
