  1. A \(0\)
  2. B any non-zero real number other than \(1.\)
  3. C any non-zero real number.
  4. D a purely imaginary number
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) any non-zero real number.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(z=x+i y\) \(\frac{z-i}{z+i}\) is purely imaginary means its real part is zero. \(\frac{x+i y-i}{x+i y+i}=\frac{x+i(y-1)}{x+i(y+1)} \times \frac{x-i(y+1)}{x-i(y+1)}\) \({ = \frac{{{x^2} - 2ix(y + 1) + xi(y - 1) + {y^2} - 1}}{{{x^2} + {{(y + 1)}^2}}}}\)…
