Let the complex numbers α and 1α¯ lie on the circles |z-z0|2=4 and |z-z0|2=16 respectively, where z0=1+i. Then, the value of 100|α|2 is ________. [2024]
(20)
Given |z-z0|2=4 ...(i)
|z-z0|2=16 ...(ii)
α lies on (i), ∴ |α-z0|2=4
⇒(α-z0)(α¯-z¯0)=4⇒αα¯-αz¯0-z0α¯+|z0|2=4
⇒|α|2-αz¯0-z0α¯+2=4 (∵|z0|=2)
⇒|α|2-az¯0-z0α¯=2 ...(iii)
1α¯ lies on (ii)
∴ |1α¯-z0|2=16⇒(1α¯-z0)(1α-z¯0)=16
⇒(1-α¯z0)(1-αz¯0)=16αα¯
⇒1-α¯z0-αz¯0+αα¯z0z¯0=16|α|2
⇒1-α¯z0-αz¯0=14|α|2 ...(iv)
From (iii) and (iv), we get
⇒15|α|2=3⇒|α|2=315=15
∴ 100|α|2=100×15=20
