Solution

The equation |z + 1 – i| = |z – 1 + i| represents a straight line.

Explanation:

 |z + 1 – i| = |z – 1 + i|

⇒ |z – (–1 + i)| = |z – (1 – i)|

⇒ PA = PB Where A denotes the point (–1, 1), B denotes the point (1, –1) and P denotes the point (x, y).

⇒ z lies on the perpendicular bisector of the line joining A and B and perpendicular bisector is a straight line.
