Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) circle with centre \((-1,0)\) and radius 1

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(\mathrm{z}=\mathrm{x}+\) iy and \(|\mathrm{z}+1|=1\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \therefore|(\mathrm{x}+1)+\mathrm{iy}|=1 \\
& \therefore \sqrt{(\mathrm{x}+1)^2+\mathrm{y}^2}=1 \Rightarrow(\mathrm{x}+1)^2+\mathrm{y}^2=1
\end{aligned}
\)
This is an equation of a circle with centre \((-1,0)\) and radius 1 .
