If \(z, i z\) and \(z+i z\) are the vertices of a triangle and if \(|z|=4\), then the area (in sq. units) of that triangle, is

  1. A \(4\)
  2. B \(8\)
  3. C \(16\)
  4. D \(32\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(8\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Vertices: \(V_1=z\), \(V_2=iz\), \(V_3=z+iz\). Vectors from \(V_3\): \(V_3V_1 = z-(z+iz) = -iz\) and \(V_3V_2 = iz-(z+iz) = -z\). The ratio of these vectors is \(\frac{-iz}{-z} = i\). Since the ratio is purely imaginary, vectors \(V_3V_1\) and \(V_3V_2\) are perpendicular,…
