MCQ
If $\theta$ is the amplitude of $\frac{\text{a}+\text{ib}}{\text{a}-\text{ib}},$ then $\tan\theta=$
  • A
    $\frac{2\text{a}}{\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2}$
  • $\frac{2\text{ab}}{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}{\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2}$
  • D
    none of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\frac{2\text{ab}}{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}$
$\text{z}=\frac{\text{a}+\text{ib}}{\text{a}-\text{ib}}\times\frac{\text{a}+\text{ib}}{\text{a}+\text{ib}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{\text{a}^2+\text{i}^2\text{b}^2+2\text{abi}}{\text{a}^2-\text{i}^2\text{b}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2+2\text{abi}}{\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}{\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2}+\text{i}\frac{2\text{a}\text{b}}{\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{Re(z)}=\frac{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}{\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2},\text{Im(z)}\frac{2\text{a}\text{b}}{\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\tan\alpha=\Big|\frac{\text{Im(z)}}{\text{Re(z)}}\Big|$
$=\frac{2\text{ab}}{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}$
$\alpha=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{2\text{ab}}{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}\Big)$
Since, z lies in the first quadrant . Therefore,
$\text{arg(z)}=\alpha=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{2\text{ab}}{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}\Big)$
$\tan\theta=\frac{2\text{ab}}{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}$
