MCQ
If $(3 + i)z = (3 - i)\bar z,$then complex number $z$ is
  • $x\,(3 - i),\,x \in R$
  • B
    $\frac{x}{{3 + i}},\,x \in R$
  • C
    $x(3 + i),\,x \in R$
  • D
    $x( - 3 + i),\,x \in R$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$x\,(3 - i),\,x \in R$
a
(a) Given : $(3 + i)z = (3 - i)\bar z$
Let $z = x(3 - i)$, $x \in R$
$L.H.S. =$ $(3 + i)z$ = $(3 + i)\,x\,(3 - i)$
= $x\,(3 + i)\,(3 - i)\, = x\,[{(3)^2} + {1^2}] = 10x$
$R.H.S. = $$(3 - i)\bar z = (3 - i)\,x\,(3 + i) = x\,[{3^2} + {1^2}] = 10x$
Hence, $L.H.S. = R.H.S.$
$z = x(3 - i)$ satisfies the equation, then $z = x(3 - i)$, where $x$ is a real number.
