Question 51. If z = x+ iy is a complex number such that |z| = Re(iz)+1, then the locus of z is 
  1.    y2=1−2x
  2.    x2=2y−1
  3.    y2=2x−1
  4.    x2=1−2y
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> x2=1−2y
:
D
z=x+iyiz=y+ix
Given,|z|=Re(iz)+1x2+y2=y+1x2+y2=y22y+1x2=12y
Question 52. Find the complex number z satisfying the equations z12z8i=53,  z4z8=1
  1.    6
  2.    6±8i
  3.    6+8i, 6+17i
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 6+8i, 6+17i
:
C
We have z12z8i=53, z4z8=1
Let z=x+iy, then
z12z8i=53 3|z-12| = 5|z-8i|
9(x12)2+9y2 = 25x2+25(y8)2 (i)
z4z8=1 |z-4| = |z-8|
(x4)2+y2 = y2+(x8)2 x=6
Putting x=6 in (i), we get y2-25y+136=0
y=17, 8
Hence z=6+17i or z=6+8i
Trick: Check it with options.
Question 53. The values of x and y for which the numbers 3+ix2y and x2 +y+4i are conjugate complex are 
  1.    (-2,-1) or (2,-1)
  2.    (1,-2) or (-2,1)
  3.    (1,2) or (-1,-2)
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> (-2,-1) or (2,-1)
:
A
According to condition, 3-ix2 y =x2 + y + 4i
x2 + y = 3 Andx2y = -4⇒ x =±2, y = -1
⇒ (x,y) = (2,-1) or (-2,-1)
Question 54. The number of solutions of the equation z2¯z = 0 is
  1.    1
  2.    2
  3.    3
  4.    4
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 4
:
D
Let z = x+iy, so that ¯z = x - iy, therefore
z2+¯z=0(x2y2+x)+i(2xyy) = 0
Equating real and imaginary parts , we get
x2y2+x = 0 .......(i)
And 2xy - y = 0⇒ y = 0 or x = 12
if y = 0 , then (i) gives x2 + x = 0⇒ x = 0 or
x = -1
If x = 12,
Then x2y2+x=0y2=14+12=34y=±32
Hence, there are four solutions in all.
Question 55. 1i1+i is equal to
  1.    cosπ2+isinπ2
  2.    cosπ2-isinπ2
  3.    sinπ2+icosπ2
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> cosπ2-isinπ2
:
B
1i1+i=(1i)(1i)(1+i)(1i)=1+(i)22i1+1=-i
Which can be written as cosπ2-isinπ2
Question 56. For the complex number z, which of the following is true?
  1.    z+¯z is real and z¯z is imaginary
  2.    z+¯z is imaginary and  z¯z is real
  3.    Both z+¯z and z¯z are real.
  4.    Both z+¯z and z¯z are imaginary numbers
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Both z+¯z and z¯z are real.
:
C
Let z=x+iy
Here, z+¯z=(x+iy)+(xiy)=2x (Real)
And z¯z=(x+iy)(xiy)=x2+y2 (Real).
Question 57. If z is a complex number such that z2 = (¯z)2,then
  1.    z is purely real
  2.    z is purely imaginary
  3.    Either z is purely real or purely imaginary
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Either z is purely real or purely imaginary
:
C
Let z = x+iy, then its coonjucate ¯z = x-iy
Given that z2=(¯z)2
x2 -y2 + 2ixy =x2 -y2 - 2ixy⇒ 4ixy = 0
if x ≠ 0 then y = 0 and if y≠ 0 then x = 0
Question 58. If  z  is a complex number, then z.¯z  = 0 if and only if
  1.    z=0
  2.    Re(z)=0
  3.    Im(z)=0
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> z=0
:
A
Let z = x+iy,¯z = x-iy
∴ z¯z = 0⇒ (x+iy)(x-iy) = 0 ⇒ x2+y2 = 0
It is possible onle when x and y oth simultaneously zero
i.e, z = 0 +0i = 0
Question 59. If z1,z2 and z3 are complex numbers such that
|z1|=|z2|=|z3|=1z1+1z2+1z3=1,
then |z1+z2+z3|
  1.    Equal to 1
  2.    Less than 1
  3.    Greater than 3
  4.    Equal to 3
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Equal to 1
:
A
1=1z1+1z2+1z3=z1¯z1z1+z2¯z2z2+z3¯z3z3
(hence, |z1|2=1=z1¯¯¯¯¯z1, etc)
|z1+z2+z3|=|¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯z1+z2+z3|= |z1+z2+z3|
(hence,|¯¯¯¯¯z1|=|z1|)
Question 60. If x=-5+4, then the value of the expression x4+9x3+35x2-x+4 is
  1.    160
  2.    -160
  3.    60
  4.    -60
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> -160
:
B
x+5 =4i x2+10x+25=-16
Now, x4+9x3+35x2-x+4
=(x2+10x+41)(x2-x+4)-160=-160
