Detailed Solution

I) Suppose ABC is equilateral
z3z1z2z1=cosπ3+isinπ3
Therefore, I II. (a) is true.
II) Assume that z3z1=z2z1cosπ3+isinπ3
Therefore z3z1z2z1=cosπ3+isinπ3
z3z1=z2z1 and BAC=π3
This implies ABC is equilateral.
Therefore, II I. Now rotate AC_ about A through angle 5π / 3 in anticlock sense so that
z2z1=z3z1cos5π3+isin5π3.
This means II III.
Similarly we can see that IIIIV and IV I.
