Let z and w be two complex numbers such that |z|=|w|=1and |z+iw|=|ziw¯|=2. Then z equals

a
1 or i
b
1 or -i
c
1 or -1
d
i or -1

detailed solution

Correct option is C

We have |−iw|=|−i||w|=1and        |iw¯|=|i|w¯∣=1⇒−iw and iw¯ lie on the circle |z|=1. As |z−(−iw)|=|z−iw¯|=2 we get z −iw, as wellas z and i w are the end points of the same diameter, with one end point at z.∴ −iw=iw¯ ⇒ w+w¯=0⇒      w is purely imaginary.Let        w=ik where k∈RAs        |w|=1,we get |ik|=1⇒ |k|=1 ⇒ k=±1.∴ w=±i⇒−iw=iw¯=±1When iw¯=1,then z=−1 andwhen iw¯=−1 then z=1
