Detailed Solution

(za)(zb)=zz¯az¯bz+ab (za)(zb)=x2+y2-a(x-iy)-b(x+iy)+ab (za)(zb)=x2+y2-x(a+b)+ab+i(a-b)y ;

 argument of
(za) (z¯b)=y(ab)x2+y2axbx+ab 
also, (3+i)(1+3i)1+i=3-3+i(1+3)1+i=4i1+i=2+2i
argument of 2 + 2i = tan-1(2/2) = π / 4
x2+y2(a+b)x(ab)y+ab=0
Thus the locus of z is a circle with given centre  3+i2 
a+b2=32;ab2=12a=2,b=1
