Let z and be two complex numbers such that and Re( ) has minimum value. Then, the minimum value of n N for which n is real, is equal to ______________.
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Let z = x + iy
| z + i | = | z 3i |
y = 1
Now
= x2 + y2 2x 2iy + 2
= x2 + 1 2x 2i + 2
Re( ) = x2 2x + 3
Re( ) = (x 1)2 + 2
Re( )min at x = 1 z = 1 + i
Now,
= 1 + 1 2 2i + 2
= 2(1 i) = 2
n = 2
If n is real n = 4
| z + i | = | z 3i |
y = 1
Now
= x2 + y2 2x 2iy + 2
= x2 + 1 2x 2i + 2
Re( ) = x2 2x + 3
Re( ) = (x 1)2 + 2
Re( )min at x = 1 z = 1 + i
Now,
= 1 + 1 2 2i + 2
= 2(1 i) = 2
n = 2
If n is real n = 4
