Math Problem Statement

sketch locus point of

Sketch locus point of |z - 2| = 3

Solution

Here is the sketch of the locus of the point zz described by the equation z2=3|z - 2| = 3. It represents a circle in the complex plane with:

  • Center: (2,0)(2, 0) (shown in red)
  • Radius: 3 (the distance from the center to any point on the circle)

Feel free to ask for further details if needed. Here are some related questions:

  1. How do you solve other types of modulus equations in the complex plane?
  2. What is the general form of the equation for a circle in the complex plane?
  3. How can this concept of locus be applied to real-world problems?
  4. What happens if the center of the circle is a complex number instead of a real one?
  5. How do transformations of the complex plane affect this kind of equation?

Tip: Modulus equations in the complex plane often represent geometric shapes such as lines or circles, depending on the structure of the equation.
