Q33 / 90 · JEE Main 2024 (01 Feb Shift 1) · Mathematics

Let  S=z∈C:z−1=1 and 2−1z+z¯-iz-z¯=22. Let z1,z2∈S be such that  z1=maxz∈sz and z2=minz∈sz. Then 2z1−z22 equals:

  • A
    1
  • B
    4
  • C
    3
  • Correct answer
    D
    2

Solution

Given,

z−1=1

Now, let z=x+iy

⇒x−12+y2=1   ...i

And 

2−1z+z¯-iz-z¯=22

⇒2−12x−i2iy=22

⇒2−1x+y=2   ...ii

Solving i and ii,

⇒x-12+2-2-1x2=1

⇒x2+1-2x+2+2-12x2-222-1x=1

⇒x2+1-2x+2+2+1-22x2-4x+22x=1

⇒x2-2x+2+3x2-2x22-4x+22x=0

⇒4x2-2x22-6x+22x+2=0

⇒4-22x2+-6+22x+2=0

⇒4-22x2+-4+22x-2x+2=0

⇒4-22xx-1-2x-1=0

⇒x-14-22x-2=0

Either x=1 or x=12−2   ...iii

On solving ii and iii we get

For x=1⇒y=1⇒z2=1+i and for x=12−2⇒y=2−12⇒z1=1+12+i2

⇒2z1−z22=12+12+i−1+i2

⇒2z1−z22=1+2+i−1+i2

⇒2z1−z22=22

⇒2z1−z22=2

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
