All the points in the set \(S\, = \left\{ {\frac{{\alpha \, + \,i}}{{\alpha \, - \,i}}\,:\,\alpha \, \in \,R} \right\}\,(i\, = \,\sqrt { - 1} )\) lie on a

  1. A straight line whose slope is \(1\)
  2. B circle whose radius is \(\sqrt 2\)
  3. C straight line whose slope is \(- 1\)
  4. D circle whose radius is \(1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) circle whose radius is \(1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(\frac{{\alpha \, + \,i}}{{\alpha \, - \,i}}\, = z\) \( \Rightarrow \,\left| {\frac{{\alpha + i}}{{\alpha - i}}} \right|\, = \,\left| z \right|\) \( \Rightarrow \,1\, = \,\,\left| z \right|\) \( \Rightarrow \) circle of radius \(1\)
