\displaystyle \textbf{Question 38. }\text{If }f(z)=\frac{7-z}{1-z^2},\text{ where }z=1+2i,\text{ then }|f(z)|\text{ is}
\displaystyle \text{(a) }\frac{|z|}{2}\qquad \text{(b) }|z|\qquad \text{(c) }2|z|\qquad \text{(d) none of these}
\displaystyle \text{Answer:}
\displaystyle z=1+2i
\displaystyle z^2=(1+2i)^2=-3+4i
\displaystyle f(z)=\frac{7-(1+2i)}{1-(-3+4i)}
\displaystyle =\frac{6-2i}{4-4i}
\displaystyle =1+\frac{i}{2}
\displaystyle \therefore |f(z)|=\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{4}}=\frac{\sqrt5}{2}
\displaystyle |z|=\sqrt{1^2+2^2}=\sqrt5
\displaystyle \therefore |f(z)|=\frac{|z|}{2}
\displaystyle \therefore \text{Correct option is (a).}
\\

\displaystyle \textbf{Question 39. }\text{A real value of }x\text{ satisfies }\frac{3-4ix}{3+4ix}=a-ib,\ (a,b\in R),\text{ if }a^2+b^2=
\displaystyle \text{(a) }1\qquad \text{(b) }-1\qquad \text{(c) }2\qquad \text{(d) }-2
\displaystyle \text{Answer:}
\displaystyle a^2+b^2=|a-ib|^2
\displaystyle =\left|\frac{3-4ix}{3+4ix}\right|^2
\displaystyle =\frac{|3-4ix|^2}{|3+4ix|^2}
\displaystyle =\frac{9+16x^2}{9+16x^2}=1
\displaystyle \therefore \text{Correct option is (a).}
\\

\displaystyle \textbf{Question 40. }\text{The complex number }z\text{ which satisfies }\left|\frac{i+z}{i-z}\right|=1\text{ lies on}
\displaystyle \text{(a) circle }x^2+y^2=1\qquad \text{(b) the }x\text{-axis}\qquad \text{(c) the }y\text{-axis}\qquad \text{(d) the line }x+y=1
\displaystyle \text{Answer:}
\displaystyle \left|\frac{i+z}{i-z}\right|=1
\displaystyle \therefore |z+i|=|z-i|
\displaystyle \text{Thus, }z\text{ is equidistant from }-i\text{ and }i.
\displaystyle \therefore z\text{ lies on the perpendicular bisector of the line joining }-i\text{ and }i.
\displaystyle \therefore z\text{ lies on the }x\text{-axis.}
\displaystyle \therefore \text{Correct option is (b).}
\\

\displaystyle \textbf{Question 41. }\text{If }z\text{ is a complex number, then}
\displaystyle \text{(a) }|\overline z|^2>|z|^2\qquad \text{(b) }|\overline z|^2=|z|^2\qquad \text{(c) }|\overline z|^2<|z|^2\qquad \text{(d) }|\overline z|^2\geq|z|^2
\displaystyle \text{Answer:}
\displaystyle \text{Let }z=x+iy
\displaystyle \therefore \overline z=x-iy
\displaystyle |z|^2=x^2+y^2,\qquad |\overline z|^2=x^2+y^2
\displaystyle \therefore |\overline z|^2=|z|^2
\displaystyle \therefore \text{Correct option is (b).}
\\

\displaystyle \textbf{Question 42. }\text{Which of the following is correct for any two complex numbers }z_1\text{ and }z_2?
\displaystyle \text{(a) }|z_1z_2|=|z_1||z_2|\qquad \text{(b) }\arg(z_1z_2)=\arg(z_1)\arg(z_2)
\displaystyle \text{(c) }|z_1+z_2|=|z_1|+|z_2|\qquad \text{(d) }|z_1+z_2|\geq|z_1|+|z_2|
\displaystyle \text{Answer:}
\displaystyle \text{For any two complex numbers,}
\displaystyle |z_1z_2|=|z_1||z_2|
\displaystyle \therefore \text{Correct option is (a).}
\\

\displaystyle \textbf{Question 43. }\text{If the complex number }z=x+iy\text{ satisfies }|z+1|=1,\text{ then }z\text{ lies on}
\displaystyle \text{(a) }x\text{-axis}\qquad \text{(b) circle with centre }(-1,0)\text{ and radius }1
\displaystyle \text{(c) }y\text{-axis}\qquad \text{(d) none of these}
\displaystyle \text{Answer:}
\displaystyle |z+1|=1
\displaystyle \therefore |(x+1)+iy|=1
\displaystyle \therefore (x+1)^2+y^2=1
\displaystyle \therefore z\text{ lies on a circle with centre }(-1,0)\text{ and radius }1.
\displaystyle \therefore \text{Correct option is (b).}
