MCQ
The argument of $\frac{1-\text{i}}{1+\text{i}}$ is:
  • A
    $-\frac{\pi}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{3\pi}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{5\pi}{2}$

Answer

  1. ​​​$-\frac{\pi}{2}$

​​​​​​​Solution:

Let $\text{z}=\frac{1-\text{i}}{1+\text{i}}$

$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{1-\text{i}}{1+\text{i}}\times\frac{1-\text{i}}{1-\text{i}}$

$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{1+\text{i}^2-2\text{i}}{1-\text{i}^2}$

$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{1-1-2\text{i}}{1+1}$

$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{-2\text{i}}{2}$

$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\text{i}$

Since, z lies on negative direction of imaginary axis . Therefore, $\text{arg(z)}=\frac{-\pi}{2}$
