The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \((z_4 - z_1)^2 ( \cos \theta + 1) \sec \theta\), where \(z_1, z_2, z_3\) are the vertices of an isosceles triangle \(ABC\) with \(AC = BC\) and \(\angle CAB = \theta\). The point \(z_4\) is the incenter of triangle \(ABC\). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Triangle Configuration**: - Let \(z_1\) be the vertex \(A\), \(z_2\) be the vertex \(B\), and \(z_3\) be the vertex \(C\). - Since \(AC = BC\), triangle \(ABC\) is isosceles with \(AB\) as the base. 2. **Positioning the Vertices**: - We can place the vertices in the Argand plane as follows: - \(z_1 = 0\) (point \(A\)) - \(z_2 = b\) (point \(B\) on the real axis) - \(z_3 = c e^{i\theta}\) (point \(C\) at an angle \(\theta\) from \(A\)) 3. **Finding the Incenter \(z_4\)**: - The incenter \(z_4\) of triangle \(ABC\) can be calculated using the formula: \[ z_4 = \frac{a z_1 + b z_2 + c z_3}{a + b + c} \] - Here, \(a\), \(b\), and \(c\) are the lengths of the sides opposite to vertices \(A\), \(B\), and \(C\) respectively. 4. **Calculating the Side Lengths**: - The lengths can be expressed as: - \(AB = b\) - \(AC = c\) - \(BC = c\) - Thus, the lengths are \(a = c\), \(b = b\), and \(c = c\). 5. **Substituting into the Incenter Formula**: - The incenter \(z_4\) becomes: \[ z_4 = \frac{c \cdot 0 + b \cdot b + c \cdot (c e^{i\theta})}{c + b + c} = \frac{b^2 + c^2 e^{i\theta}}{b + 2c} \] 6. **Finding \((z_4 - z_1)^2\)**: - Since \(z_1 = 0\), we have: \[ z_4 - z_1 = z_4 = \frac{b^2 + c^2 e^{i\theta}}{b + 2c} \] - Therefore, \[ (z_4 - z_1)^2 = \left( \frac{b^2 + c^2 e^{i\theta}}{b + 2c} \right)^2 \] 7. **Calculating \((z_4 - z_1)^2 (\cos \theta + 1) \sec \theta\)**: - We need to multiply by \((\cos \theta + 1) \sec \theta\): \[ (z_4 - z_1)^2 (\cos \theta + 1) \sec \theta = \left( \frac{b^2 + c^2 e^{i\theta}}{b + 2c} \right)^2 (\cos \theta + 1) \sec \theta \] 8. **Simplifying the Expression**: - The expression simplifies based on the values of \(b\) and \(c\) and the angle \(\theta\). After performing the necessary algebraic manipulations, we can derive the final value. ### Final Result: The final value of \((z_4 - z_1)^2 (\cos \theta + 1) \sec \theta\) can be expressed in terms of the triangle's dimensions and the angle \(\theta\).
