Question

State true or false for the following:

If three complex numbers z1, z2 and z3 are in A.P., then they lie on a circle in the complex plane.

Options

  • True

  • False

MCQ
True or False

Solution

This statement is False.

Explanation:

Because if `barz_1`, z2 and z3 are in A.P.

Then z2 = `(z_1 + z_3)/2`

⇒ z2 is the midpoint of z1 and z3, which implies that the points z1, z2, z3 are collinear.
