Question

What is the locus of z, if amplitude of z – 2 – 3i is `pi/4`?

Sum

Solution

Let z = x + iy.

Then z – 2 – 3i = (x – 2) + i(y – 3)

Let θ be the amplitude of z – 2 – 3i.

Then `tan theta = (y - 3)/(x - 2)`

⇒ `tan  pi/4 = (y - 3)/(x - 2)("since"  theta = pi/4)`

⇒ 1 = `(y - 3)/(x - 2)` i.e. x – y + 1 = 0,

Hence, the locus of z is a straight line.
