complez and quadratic

plz solve:
1.The range of α ε(-π,π) for which there exists no complex no. satisfying arg(z-1)=45° and arg(z+1)=α together is:

a)(-pi,0] U [pi/4,pi]
b)(-pi,0)
c) [pi/4,pi]

2.Let it be known that all the roots of an equation x3+px2+qx+r=0 are positive. The condition on its coefficient p,q,r so that the line segments equal to roots are the sides of a triangle:

a)p3+4pq+8r <0
b)p3 -4pq+8r >0
c)p3-4pq(qr+4pq)>0
d)none of these

[pi/4,pi]

Thing geomtrically!

and then go from -ve side.. from - pi to 0

did you figure it out?

Lokesh Verma ·

let the roots be a<=b<=c

so we want a+b>c for the two smallest roots...

and that each root is greater than zero...

abhee i cant figure out something immediately...

asish.. we want everything outside 0 to pi/4 because we dont want a root!

Ok Cipher..

here is it something algebraic.

Question is equivalent to:
Find α so that no solution exist to
y=x-1 ...(corresponding to arg(z-1)=450) ...(y>0)* ...(so x>1)* because arg(z-1)=450 not ±450
and y=xtanα+tanα ....(corresponding to arg(z+1)=α) .(y>0)* (so x>-1)*

so they can only intersect for x>1 and y>0

*( arg(z-1)=450 doesnot include 1,0 nor arg(z+1) include -1,0)

x=(1+tanα)/(1-tanα) ...(notice here we loose the case tanα=1 we will take care of it separately..) also
y=2tanα/(1-tanα)

Now it is clear that for they to intersect they have to do so for x≥1 and y≥0

x<1
(1+tanα)/(1-tanα)<1
tan>1 or tanα<0
so α belongs to (-π,0)U(π/4,π)

but we see for tanα=1 and tanα=0 it also satisfies (see *)

so α belongs to (-π,0]U[π/4,π] option (a)

but it is better to do it graphically

red one is fixed for arg(z-1)=450
blue line is varied for different α line I being parallel to red line.

you can easily see that any * marked line can satisfy given condition.

hence the answer.

good work abhi

but 1st becomes quite simple if u put Z=2+i
jab paper mein dimaag na chale
