The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the conditions given for the complex numbers \( z_1, z_2, z_3, z_4 \) representing the vertices of a quadrilateral \( ABCD \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Conditions**: We have two conditions: - \( z_1 - z_4 = z_2 - z_3 \) - \( \text{arg}\left(\frac{z_4 - z_1}{z_2 - z_1}\right) = \frac{\pi}{2} \) 2. **Using the First Condition**: From the first condition \( z_1 - z_4 = z_2 - z_3 \), we can rearrange it to: \[ z_1 + z_3 = z_2 + z_4 \] This implies that the midpoints of the diagonals \( AC \) and \( BD \) are the same. 3. **Finding the Midpoint**: The midpoint of diagonal \( AC \) is: \[ \frac{z_1 + z_3}{2} \] And the midpoint of diagonal \( BD \) is: \[ \frac{z_2 + z_4}{2} \] Since \( z_1 + z_3 = z_2 + z_4 \), we conclude that: \[ \frac{z_1 + z_3}{2} = \frac{z_2 + z_4}{2} \] This means that the diagonals bisect each other. 4. **Using the Second Condition**: The second condition \( \text{arg}\left(\frac{z_4 - z_1}{z_2 - z_1}\right) = \frac{\pi}{2} \) indicates that the vector \( z_4 - z_1 \) is perpendicular to the vector \( z_2 - z_1 \). This means that the angle between the sides \( AD \) and \( AB \) is \( 90^\circ \). 5. **Conclusion**: Since the diagonals bisect each other and the angle between two adjacent sides is \( 90^\circ \), we conclude that the quadrilateral \( ABCD \) is a rectangle. ### Final Answer: The quadrilateral is a **rectangle**.
