- $\alpha \beta=4$
- $\alpha \beta=-4$

The Correct Option is B, D
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Given Information
We are given that for any complex number \( w = c + id \), the argument \( \arg(w) \) lies in the range \( (-\pi, \pi] \), where \( i = \sqrt{-1} \). Also, we have real numbers \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \) such that for all complex numbers \( z = x + iy \), if \( \arg \left( \frac{z + \alpha}{z + \beta} \right) = \frac{\pi}{4} \), then the ordered pair \( (x, y) \) lies on the circle with equation:
\[
x^2 + y^2 + 5x - 3y + 4 = 0
\]
Our task is to find \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \) such that this condition holds.
Step 2: Geometrical Interpretation of the Problem
The condition \( \arg \left( \frac{z + \alpha}{z + \beta} \right) = \frac{\pi}{4} \) suggests a relationship between the points \( z = x + iy \), \( \alpha \), and \( \beta \) in the complex plane. The argument \( \frac{z + \alpha}{z + \beta} \) corresponds to the angle between the vectors \( z + \alpha \) and \( z + \beta \), and we are given that this angle is \( \frac{\pi}{4} \) (which is 45 degrees).
Step 3: Analyze the Circle Equation
The given equation of the circle is:
\[
x^2 + y^2 + 5x - 3y + 4 = 0
\]
We can complete the square for both \( x \) and \( y \) to rewrite this equation in standard form. Completing the square for \( x \) and \( y \), we get:
\[
(x + \frac{5}{2})^2 + (y - \frac{3}{2})^2 = \frac{25}{4} + \frac{9}{4} - 4
\]
Simplifying the constants:
\[
(x + \frac{5}{2})^2 + (y - \frac{3}{2})^2 = \frac{9}{4}
\]
So, the circle has center \( \left( -\frac{5}{2}, \frac{3}{2} \right) \) and radius \( \frac{3}{2} \).
Step 4: The Real Axis Intersections
The equation of the circle intersects the real axis (the \( x \)-axis) when \( y = 0 \). Substituting \( y = 0 \) into the equation of the circle, we get:
\[
x^2 + 5x + 4 = 0
\]
Solving this quadratic equation:
\[
x = \frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{5^2 - 4(1)(4)}}{2(1)} = \frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{25 - 16}}{2} = \frac{-5 \pm 3}{2}
\]
The solutions are \( x = -4 \) and \( x = -1 \), so the circle intersects the real axis at \( (-4, 0) \) and \( (-1, 0) \).
Step 5: Condition on \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \)
The condition \( \arg \left( \frac{z + \alpha}{z + \beta} \right) = \frac{\pi}{4} \) suggests that the points \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \) are related geometrically to the center of the circle and the points on the real axis. After analyzing this geometrically, we conclude that the values of \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \) must satisfy \( \alpha = 1 \) and \( \beta = 4 \).
Step 6: Conclusion
The value of \( \alpha \beta = 1 \times 4 = 4 \).
Final Answer:
The value of \( \alpha \beta \) is \( \boxed{4} \).
