The number of points of intersection of $|z - (4 + 3i)| = 2$ and $|z| + |z - 4| = 6$, $z \in \mathbb{C}$, is
0
1
2
3
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
The correct answer is (C) : 2
C1 : |z – (4 + 3i)| = 2 and C2 : |z| + |z – 4| = 6, z ∈ C
C1: represents a circle with centre (4, 3) and radius 2 and C2 represents a ellipse with focii at (0, 0) and (4, 0) and length of major axis = 6, and length of semi-major axis 2√5 and (4, 2) lies inside the both C1 and C2 and (4, 3) lies outside the C2
Therefore,
no. of intersection points = 2

Concepts Used:
Complex Number
A Complex Number is written in the form
a + ib
where,
- “a” is a real number
- “b” is an imaginary number
The Complex Number consists of a symbol “i” which satisfies the condition i^2 = −1. Complex Numbers are mentioned as the extension of one-dimensional number lines. In a complex plane, a Complex Number indicated as a + bi is usually represented in the form of the point (a, b). We have to pay attention that a Complex Number with absolutely no real part, such as – i, -5i, etc, is called purely imaginary. Also, a Complex Number with perfectly no imaginary part is known as a real number.
