Let $P=\{z \in \mathbb{C}:|z+2-3 i| \leq 1\}$ and $Q=\{z \in \mathbb{C}: z(1+i)+\bar{z}(1-i) \leq-8\}$. Let in $\mathrm{P} \cap \mathrm{Q},|\mathrm{z}-3+2 \mathrm{i}|$ be maximum and minimum at $z_1$ and $z_2$ respectively. If $\left|z_1\right|^2+2|z|^2=\alpha+\beta \sqrt{2}$, where $\alpha, \beta$ are integers, then $\alpha+\beta$ equals______.
Answerc
Clearly for the shaded region $z_1$ is the intersection of the circle and the line passing through $\mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{L}_1\right)$ and $\mathrm{z}_2$ is intersection of line $\mathrm{L}_1 \& \mathrm{~L}_2$
Circle : $(x+2)^2+(y-3)^2=1$
$L_1: x+y-1=0 $
$L_2: x-y+4=0$
On solving circle $\mathrm{L}_1$ we get
$z_1:\left(-2-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, 3+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)$
On solving $\mathrm{L}_1$ and $\mathrm{z}_2$ is intersection of line $\mathrm{L}_1 \& \mathrm{~L}_2$ we get $z_2:\left(\frac{-3}{2}, \frac{5}{2}\right)$
$\left|z_1\right|^2+2\left|z_2\right|^2=14+5 \sqrt{2}+17$
$=31+5 \sqrt{2}$
So $\alpha=31$
$\beta=5$
$\alpha+\beta=36$

Then $\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}$ is equal to_.....................
Answera
$ x^2-\sqrt{6} x+6=0 $
$ x=\frac{\sqrt{6} \pm i \sqrt{6}}{2}=\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}(1 \pm i) $
$ \alpha=\sqrt{3}\left(e^{i \frac{\pi}{4}}\right), \beta=\sqrt{3}\left(e^{-i \frac{\pi}{4}}\right) $

$ =\frac{\alpha^{98}(\alpha+\beta)}{\beta}=3^{49}\left(e^{i 99 \frac{\pi}{4}}\right) \times \sqrt{2} $
$ =3^{49}(-1+i) $

Answera
$\alpha=8-14 i$
$z=x+i y$
$a z=(8 x+14 y)+i(-14 x+8 y)$
$z +\overline{ z }=2 x \quad z -\overline{ z }=2 iy$
Set A: $\frac{2 i(-14 x+8 y)}{i(4 x y-112)}=1$
$(x-4)(y+7)=0$
$x=4 \quad \text { or } \quad y=-7$
Set B: $x^2+(y+3)^2=16$
when $x=4 \quad y=-3$
when $y =-7 \quad x =0$

Answerd
$z=1+i$
$z_1=\frac{1+i \bar{z}}{\bar{z}(1-z)+\frac{1}{z}}$
$z_1=\frac{1+i(1-i)}{(1-i)(1-1-i)+\frac{1}{1+i}}$
$=\frac{1+i-i^2}{(1-i)(-i)+\frac{1-i}{2}}$
$=\frac{2+i}{-3 i-1}=\frac{4+2 i}{-3 i-1}$
$=\frac{-(4+2 i)(3 i-1)}{(3 i)^2-(1)^2}$
$\therefore \frac{12}{\pi} \arg \left(z_1\right)=\frac{12}{\pi} \times \frac{3 \pi}{4}=9$

Answerc
$\operatorname{Re}\left(a z^2+b z\right)=a$
$a z^2+b z+a \bar{z}^2+b \bar{z}=2 a$
$a\left(z^2+\bar{z}^2\right)+ b ( z +\overline{ z })=2 a$
$\operatorname{Re}\left( bz z^2+ az \right)= b$
$b z^2+a z+b \bar{z}^2+ az =2 b$
$b \left( z ^2+\overline{ z }^2\right)+ a ( z +\overline{ z })=2 b$
$(1) \times b-(2) \times(a)$
$\Rightarrow\left(b^2-a^2\right)(z+\bar{z})=0$
$\Rightarrow \quad(z+\bar{z})=0 \quad\left(a^2 \neq b^2\right)$
$(1) \times a-(2) \times(b)$
$\Rightarrow \quad\left(a^2-b^2\right)(z+\bar{z})=2\left(a^2-b^2\right) \quad\left(a^2 \neq b^2\right)$
$z^2+\bar{z}^2=2$
$\Rightarrow(z+\bar{z})^2-2 z \bar{z}=2$
$z \bar{z}=-1$
$\Rightarrow 1+1^2=-1$
$\Rightarrow \text { No solution }$
$\text { But when } a=-b$
$\operatorname{Re}\left(a z^2-a z\right)=a$
$\Rightarrow \quad \operatorname{Re}\left(a\left(x^2-y^2+i 2 x y\right)-a(x+i y)\right)=a$
$\Rightarrow a\left(x^2-y^2\right)-a x=a$
$\Rightarrow x^2-y^2-x=1$
$\Rightarrow x^2-x-1=y^2$
For any real values of $y$ there two values of $x$, hence infinite complex numbers are possible.

$\sqrt{(x-2)^2+y^2}=2 \sqrt{(x-3)^2+y^2}$
$=x^2+y^2-4 x+4=4 x^2+4 y^2-24 x+36$

- ✓
$-\frac{1}{2}$
- B
$-1$
- C
$1$
- D
$\frac{1}{2}$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $-\frac{1}{2}$
a
$a b < 0\left|\frac{1+a i}{b+i}\right|=1$
$|1+a i l=| b+i l$
$a^2+1=b^2+1 \Rightarrow a=\pm b \Rightarrow b=-a \quad \text { as } a b < 0$
$(a, b) \text { lies on }| z -1|=|2 z |$
$la + ib -1 \mid=2 l a + ibl$
$( a -1)^2+ b ^2=4\left( a ^2+ b ^2\right)$
$( a -1)^2= a ^2=4\left(2 a ^2\right)$
$1-2 a =6 a ^2 \Rightarrow 6 a ^2+2 a -1=0$
$a =\frac{-2 \pm \sqrt{28}}{12}=\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{7}}{6}$
$a =\frac{\sqrt{7}-1}{6}$ and $b =\frac{1-\sqrt{7}}{6}$
${[ a ]=0}$
$\therefore \frac{1+[ a ]}{4 b }=\frac{6}{4(1-\sqrt{7})}=-\left(\frac{1+\sqrt{7}}{4}\right.$
$\text { or }[ a ]=0$
Similarly it is not matching with $a =\frac{-1-\sqrt{7}}{6}$
No answer is matching.

$\Rightarrow 1+\frac{(11 i z-13)}{\left(z^2-3 i z-2\right)} \in R$
Put $z=\alpha-\frac{13}{11} i$
$\Rightarrow\left(z^2-3 i z-2\right)$ is imaginary
Put $z=x+i y$
$\Rightarrow\left(x^2-y^2+2 x y i-3 i x+3 y-2\right) \in \text { Imaginary }$
$\Rightarrow \operatorname{Re}\left(x^2-y^2+3 y-2+(2 x y-3 x) i\right)=0$
$\Rightarrow x^2-y^2+3 y-2=0$
$x^2=y^2-3 y+2$
$x^2=y^2-3 y+2$
$x^2=(y-1)(y-2) \therefore z=\alpha-\frac{13}{11} i$
Put $x=\alpha, y=\frac{-13}{11}$
$\alpha^2=\left(\frac{-13}{11}-1\right)\left(\frac{-13}{11}-2\right)$

Let $S=\left\{z \in C : z^{2}+\bar{z}=0\right\}$. Then $\sum \limits_{z \in S}(\operatorname{Re}(z)+\operatorname{Im}(z))$ is equal to$......$
Answerd
$S=\left\{z \in C: z^{2}+\bar{z}=0\right\}$
Let $z = x + iy$
$z ^{2}= x ^{2}- y ^{2}+2 ixy$
$\bar{z}=x-i y$
$z^{2}+\bar{z}=x^{2}-y^{2}+x+i(2 x y-y)=0$
$x^{2}+x-y^{2}=0 \text { \& } 2 x y-y=0$
$y=0$ or $x=\frac{1}{2}$
If $y =0 ; x =0,-1$
If $x=\frac{1}{2} ; y=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}, \frac{-\sqrt{3}}{2}$
$\sum_{z \in S}(\operatorname{Re}(z)+\operatorname{Im}(z)=\left(0-1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\right)$
$+0+0+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})$

Let for some real numbers $\alpha$ and $\beta$, a $=\alpha-i \beta$. If the system of equations $4 ix +(1+ i ) y =0$ and $8\left(\cos \frac{2 \pi}{3}+i \sin \frac{2 \pi}{3}\right) x+\bar{a} y=0$ has more than one solution then $\frac{\alpha}{\beta}$ is equal to
- A
$-2+\sqrt{3}$
- ✓
$2-\sqrt{3}$
- C
$2+\sqrt{3}$
- D
$-2-\sqrt{3}$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $2-\sqrt{3}$
b
$a =\alpha- i \beta ; \alpha \in R ; \beta \in R$
$4 ix +(1+ i ) y =0$ and
$8\left(\cos \frac{2 \pi}{3}+ i \sin \frac{2 \pi}{3}\right) x +\overline{ a } y =0$
$\left|\begin{array}{cc}4 i \quad 1+ i \\ 8 e ^{ i 2 \pi / 3} \quad \overline{ a }\end{array}\right|=0$
$\Rightarrow 4 i \overline{ a }-(1+ i ) 8 e ^{ i 2 \pi / 3}=0$
$\Rightarrow 4 i (\alpha+ i \beta)-8(1+ i )\left(\frac{-1+ i \sqrt{3}}{2}\right)=0$
$\Rightarrow i \alpha-\beta+1+\sqrt{3}+ i (1-\sqrt{3})=0$
$\Rightarrow \beta=\sqrt{3}+1$
$\alpha=\sqrt{3}-1$
So, $\frac{\alpha}{\beta}$
$\frac{\alpha}{\beta}=\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{\sqrt{3}+1}=2-\sqrt{3}$

Let $S=\{z \in C :|z-3| \leq 1$ and $z(4+3 i)+\bar{z}(4-3 i) \leq 24\}$.
If $\alpha+i \beta$ is the point in $S$ which is closest to $4 i$, then $25(\alpha+\beta)$ is equal to
Answerc
$|z-3| \leq 1$
represent pt. i/s circle of radius $1 $ centred at $(3,0)$
$z(4+3 i)+\bar{z}(4-3 i) \leq 24$
$(x+i y)(4+3 i)+(x-i y)(4-3 i) \leq 24$
$4 x+3 x i+4 i y-3 y+4 x-3 i x-4 i y-3 y \leq 24$
$8 x-6 y \leq 24$
$4 x-3 y \leq 12$
minimum of $(0,4)$ from circle $=\sqrt{3^{2}+4^{2}}-1=4$ will lie along line joining $(0,4) \&(3,0)$
$\therefore$ equation line
$\frac{x}{3}+\frac{y}{4}=1 \Rightarrow 4 x+3 y=12 \ldots \text { (i) }$
equation circle $(x-3)^{2}+y^{2}=1 \ldots$ $(ii)$
$\left(\frac{12-3 y}{4}-3\right)^{2}+y^{2}=1$
$\left(\frac{-3 y}{4}\right)^{2}+y^{2}=1$
$\frac{25 y^{2}}{16}=1 \Rightarrow y=\pm \frac{4}{5}$
for minimum distance $y=\frac{4}{5}$
$\therefore x=\frac{12}{5}$
$\therefore 25(\alpha+\beta)=25\left(\frac{4}{5}+\frac{12}{5}\right)$
$=16 \times 5=80$
