The correct Answer is:
To determine whether it is necessary that \( z_1 = z_2 \) given that \( |z_1| = |z_2| \), we can analyze the situation step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding the Modulus of Complex Numbers The modulus of a complex number \( z = a + bi \) (where \( a \) and \( b \) are real numbers) is defined as: \[ |z| = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2} \] This represents the distance of the complex number from the origin in the complex plane. ### Step 2: Given Condition We are given that: \[ |z_1| = |z_2| \] This means that both complex numbers \( z_1 \) and \( z_2 \) are at the same distance from the origin. ### Step 3: Example of Two Complex Numbers Let’s consider two specific complex numbers: - Let \( z_1 = 3 + 4i \) - Let \( z_2 = 4 + 3i \) ### Step 4: Calculate the Modulus of \( z_1 \) Calculating the modulus of \( z_1 \): \[ |z_1| = |3 + 4i| = \sqrt{3^2 + 4^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25} = 5 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the Modulus of \( z_2 \) Calculating the modulus of \( z_2 \): \[ |z_2| = |4 + 3i| = \sqrt{4^2 + 3^2} = \sqrt{16 + 9} = \sqrt{25} = 5 \] ### Step 6: Conclusion from the Example From the calculations, we see that: \[ |z_1| = 5 \quad \text{and} \quad |z_2| = 5 \] Thus, \( |z_1| = |z_2| \) holds true. However, we also observe that: \[ z_1 = 3 + 4i \quad \text{and} \quad z_2 = 4 + 3i \] Clearly, \( z_1 \neq z_2 \). ### Final Conclusion Therefore, it is not necessary that \( z_1 = z_2 \) even if \( |z_1| = |z_2| \). The condition only implies that they are at the same distance from the origin but does not guarantee equality.
