The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of the expression \[ \frac{z_1^2 + z_2^2 + 4z_1z_2}{z_1z_2} \] given that the complex numbers \( A(z_1) \), \( B(z_2) \), and the origin form an isosceles triangle with \( \angle AOB = \frac{2\pi}{3} \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Geometry**: Since \( AOB \) is an isosceles triangle and \( \angle AOB = \frac{2\pi}{3} \), we know that \( |z_1| = |z_2| \). Let \( |z_1| = |z_2| = r \). 2. **Using the Angle**: We can express \( z_1 \) and \( z_2 \) in polar form: \[ z_1 = r e^{i\theta}, \quad z_2 = r e^{i(\theta + \frac{2\pi}{3})} \] 3. **Calculating \( z_1^2 \) and \( z_2^2 \)**: \[ z_1^2 = r^2 e^{2i\theta}, \quad z_2^2 = r^2 e^{2i(\theta + \frac{2\pi}{3})} \] 4. **Finding \( z_1^2 + z_2^2 \)**: \[ z_2^2 = r^2 e^{2i\theta} e^{\frac{4\pi i}{3}} = r^2 e^{2i\theta} \left(-\frac{1}{2} + i \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \] Therefore, \[ z_1^2 + z_2^2 = r^2 e^{2i\theta} + r^2 e^{2i\theta} \left(-\frac{1}{2} + i \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \] Simplifying this gives: \[ z_1^2 + z_2^2 = r^2 e^{2i\theta} \left(1 - \frac{1}{2} + i \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) = r^2 e^{2i\theta} \left(\frac{1}{2} + i \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \] 5. **Calculating \( z_1z_2 \)**: \[ z_1 z_2 = r^2 e^{i\theta} e^{i(\theta + \frac{2\pi}{3})} = r^2 e^{2i\theta} e^{\frac{2\pi i}{3}} \] 6. **Substituting into the Expression**: Now we substitute \( z_1^2 + z_2^2 \) and \( z_1 z_2 \) into the expression: \[ \frac{z_1^2 + z_2^2 + 4z_1z_2}{z_1z_2} = \frac{z_1^2 + z_2^2}{z_1z_2} + 4 \] 7. **Finding \( \frac{z_1^2 + z_2^2}{z_1z_2} \)**: Since \( z_1^2 + z_2^2 = -z_1z_2 \) (from the isosceles triangle property), \[ \frac{z_1^2 + z_2^2}{z_1z_2} = -1 \] 8. **Final Calculation**: Therefore, \[ \frac{z_1^2 + z_2^2 + 4z_1z_2}{z_1z_2} = -1 + 4 = 3 \] ### Conclusion: The value of the expression is \[ \boxed{3} \]
