Q.

For any complex number w=c+id, let arg(w)(-π,π], where i=-1. Let α and β be real numbers such that for all complex numbers z=x+iy satisfying arg(z+αz+β)=π4, the ordered pair (x,y) lies on the circle x2+y2+5x-3y+4=0. Then which of the following statements is (are) TRUE                  [2021]

1 α=-1  
2 αβ=4  
3 αβ=-4  
4 β=4  

Ans.

(2, 4)

Given that arg(z+αz+β)=arg(z+α)-arg(z+β)=π4 implies z is on arc and (-α,0) & (-β,0) subtend π4 on  z.

Given that z lies on x2+y2+5x-3y+4=0

So put y=0; for value of α and β

x2+5x+4=0  x=-1, x=-4

 α=1, β=4.
