Math Problem Statement

Tentukan z jika arg(z + 2i) = 1/4π dan arg(z - 3) = 1/2π!

Solution

The problem in the image asks to determine zz given that:

arg(z+2i)=14πandarg(z3)=12π.\text{arg}(z + 2i) = \frac{1}{4}\pi \quad \text{and} \quad \text{arg}(z - 3) = \frac{1}{2}\pi.

We will solve this step by step.

Step 1: Analyze arg(z+2i)=14π\text{arg}(z + 2i) = \frac{1}{4}\pi

Let z=x+yiz = x + yi, where xx and yy are real numbers. The argument of z+2iz + 2i means that we are considering z+2i=(x+yi)+2i=x+(y+2)iz + 2i = (x + yi) + 2i = x + (y + 2)i. Therefore:

arg(z+2i)=arg(x+(y+2)i)=14π.\text{arg}(z + 2i) = \text{arg}(x + (y+2)i) = \frac{1}{4}\pi.

From this, the complex number x+(y+2)ix + (y+2)i forms an angle of π4\frac{\pi}{4} with the positive real axis, which indicates that:

y+2x=tan(π4)=1.\frac{y + 2}{x} = \tan\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) = 1.

So we have the equation:

y+2=x.y + 2 = x.

Step 2: Analyze arg(z3)=12π\text{arg}(z - 3) = \frac{1}{2}\pi

Next, consider z3=(x+yi)3=(x3)+yiz - 3 = (x + yi) - 3 = (x - 3) + yi. The argument π2\frac{\pi}{2} means that the complex number (x3)+yi(x-3) + yi is purely imaginary, indicating that its real part must be zero. Thus:

x3=0.x - 3 = 0.

This gives us:

x=3.x = 3.

Step 3: Solve for yy

Now that we know x=3x = 3, substitute this into the equation y+2=xy + 2 = x from Step 1:

y+2=3,y + 2 = 3,

which gives:

y=1.y = 1.

Final Answer:

Thus, the complex number zz is:

z=3+i.z = 3 + i.


Would you like more details on any part of the solution? Here are some related questions to deepen your understanding:

  1. How is the argument of a complex number defined geometrically?
  2. What does it mean when the argument of a complex number is π2\frac{\pi}{2}?
  3. How would the solution change if the arguments were different angles?
  4. What is the general formula for calculating the argument of a complex number?
  5. Can you solve for zz if both arguments were given as non-standard angles (not multiples of π\pi)?

Tip: When solving problems involving the argument of complex numbers, always visualize the geometric meaning of the angle on the complex plane.
