Answer
Correct option: A.
1
(A) Let $z =x+ i y$. Then, $\overline{ z }=x- i y$ and $z ^{-1}=\frac{1}{x+ i y}$ $\Rightarrow\left(\overline{ z ^{-1}}\right)=\frac{1}{x- i y} \Rightarrow\left(\overline{ z ^{-1}}\right)=\frac{x+ i y}{x^2+y^2}$ $\therefore \quad\left(\overline{ z ^{-1}}\right) \overline{ z }=\frac{x+ i y}{x^2+y^2}(x- i y)=1$
