Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Given, 3∣z1∣=4∣z2∣3\left| {{z_1}} \right| = 4\left| {{z_2}} \right|

⇒\Rightarrow ∣z1∣∣z2∣=43{{\left| {{z_1}} \right|} \over {\left| {{z_2}} \right|}} = {4 \over 3}

⇒\Rightarrow ∣3z1∣∣2z2∣=43×32=2{{\left| {3{z_1}} \right|} \over {\left| {2{z_2}} \right|}} = {4 \over 3} \times {3 \over 2} = 2

As we know, for any compled number

3z12z2=∣3z1∣∣2z2∣{{3{z_1}} \over {2{z_2}}} = {{\left| {3{z_1}} \right|} \over {\left| {2{z_2}} \right|}} (cos θ\theta + i sin θ\theta )

= 2(cos θ\theta + i sin θ\theta )

∴\therefore 2z23z1{{2{z_2}} \over {3{z_1}}} = 12(cos⁡θ+isin⁡θ){1 \over {2\left( {\cos \theta + i\sin \theta } \right)}}

= 12(cos⁡θ+isin⁡θ)×(cos⁡θ−isin⁡θ)(cos⁡θ−isin⁡θ){1 \over {2\left( {\cos \theta + i\sin \theta } \right)}} \times {{\left( {\cos \theta - i\sin \theta } \right)} \over {\left( {\cos \theta - i\sin \theta } \right)}}

= (12cos⁡θ−i2sin⁡θ){\left( {{1 \over 2}\cos \theta - {i \over 2}\sin \theta } \right)}
Now, given

z=3z12z2+2z23z1z = {{3{z_1}} \over {2{z_2}}} + {{2{z_2}} \over {3{z_1}}}

= 2(cos θ\theta + i sin θ\theta ) + (12cos⁡θ−i2sin⁡θ){\left( {{1 \over 2}\cos \theta - {i \over 2}\sin \theta } \right)}

= 52cos⁡θ+32isin⁡θ{{5 \over 2}\cos \theta + {3 \over 2}i\sin \theta }

So, |z| = 254cos⁡2θ+94sin⁡2θ\sqrt {{{25} \over 4}{{\cos }^2}\theta + {9 \over 4}{{\sin }^2}\theta }

= 129+16cos⁡2θ{1 \over 2}\sqrt {9 + 16{{\cos }^2}\theta }

z is neither purely real nor purely imaginary and |z| depends on θ\theta .
