The correct Answer is:
To find the vertex \( z_2 \) of the equilateral triangle given the circumcenter and one vertex, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given information We know: - The circumcenter \( O = 1 - 2i \) - The vertex \( z_1 = 2 + i \) ### Step 2: Calculate the vector from the circumcenter to \( z_1 \) The vector \( OA \) from the circumcenter \( O \) to vertex \( z_1 \) can be calculated as: \[ OA = z_1 - O = (2 + i) - (1 - 2i) = 2 + i - 1 + 2i = 1 + 3i \] ### Step 3: Rotate the vector \( OA \) by \( \frac{2\pi}{3} \) To find the next vertex \( z_2 \), we need to rotate the vector \( OA \) by \( \frac{2\pi}{3} \) radians (which is \( 120^\circ \)) counterclockwise. The rotation can be done using the multiplication by the complex number \( e^{i\frac{2\pi}{3}} \): \[ e^{i\frac{2\pi}{3}} = -\frac{1}{2} + i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \] Thus, we calculate \( OB \): \[ OB = OA \cdot e^{i\frac{2\pi}{3}} = (1 + 3i) \cdot \left(-\frac{1}{2} + i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \] ### Step 4: Perform the multiplication Calculating \( OB \): \[ OB = 1 \cdot \left(-\frac{1}{2} + i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) + 3i \cdot \left(-\frac{1}{2} + i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \] \[ = -\frac{1}{2} + i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - \frac{3}{2}i - 3\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \] \[ = -\frac{1}{2} - \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2} + i\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - \frac{3}{2}\right) \] ### Step 5: Calculate \( z_2 \) Now, we add the vector \( OB \) to the circumcenter \( O \): \[ z_2 = O + OB = (1 - 2i) + \left(-\frac{1}{2} - \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2} + i\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - \frac{3}{2}\right)\right) \] \[ = \left(1 - \frac{1}{2} - \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) + i\left(-2 + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - \frac{3}{2}\right) \] \[ = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2} + i\left(-\frac{7}{2} + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \] ### Final Answer Thus, the coordinates of \( z_2 \) are: \[ z_2 = \frac{1 - 3\sqrt{3}}{2} + i\left(\frac{\sqrt{3} - 7}{2}\right) \] ---
