Let the complex numbers α\alpha and 1αˉ\frac{1}{\bar{\alpha}} lie on the circles ∣z−z0∣2=4\left|z-z_0\right|^2=4 and ∣z−z0∣2=16\left|z-z_0\right|^2=16 respectively, where z0=1+iz_0=1+i . Then, the value of 100∣α∣2100|\alpha|^2 is __________.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

amp;∣z−z0∣2=4amp;⇒(α−z0)(αˉ−zˉ0)=4amp;⇒ααˉ−αzˉ0−z0αˉ+∣z0∣2=4amp;⇒∣α∣2−αzˉ0−z0αˉ=2......... (1)amp;∣z−z0∣2=16\begin{aligned}& \left|z-z_0\right|^2=4 \\& \Rightarrow\left(\alpha-z_0\right)\left(\bar{\alpha}-\bar{z}_0\right)=4 \\& \Rightarrow \alpha \bar{\alpha}-\alpha \bar{z}_0-z_0 \bar{\alpha}+\left|z_0\right|^2=4 \\& \Rightarrow|\alpha|^2-\alpha \bar{z}_0-z_0 \bar{\alpha}=2 \quad\text{......... (1)} \\& \left|z-z_0\right|^2=16\end{aligned}

amp;⇒(1αˉ−z0)(1α−zˉ0)=16amp;⇒(1−αˉz0)(1−αzˉ0)=16∣α∣2amp;⇒1−αˉz0−αzˉ0+∣α∣2∣z0∣2=16∣α∣2amp;⇒1−αˉz0−αzˉ0=14∣α∣2....... (2)\begin{aligned}& \Rightarrow\left(\frac{1}{\bar{\alpha}}-z_0\right)\left(\frac{1}{\alpha}-\bar{z}_0\right)=16 \\& \Rightarrow\left(1-\bar{\alpha} z_0\right)\left(1-\alpha \bar{z}_0\right)=16|\alpha|^2 \\& \Rightarrow 1-\bar{\alpha} z_0-\alpha \bar{z}_0+|\alpha|^2\left|z_0\right|^2=16|\alpha|^2 \\& \Rightarrow 1-\bar{\alpha} z_0-\alpha \bar{z}_0=14|\alpha|^2 \quad\text{....... (2)}\end{aligned}

From (1) and (2)

amp;⇒5∣α∣2=1amp;⇒100∣α∣2=20\begin{aligned}& \Rightarrow 5|\alpha|^2=1 \\& \Rightarrow 100|\alpha|^2=20\end{aligned}
