Principal argument of complex number z=(...

Principal argument of complex number `z=(sqrt3+i)/(sqrt3-i)` equal

A

`-pi/3`

B

`pi/3`

C

`pi/6`

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
We have,
`z=(sqrt(3)+i)/(sqrt(3)-i) = ((sqrt(3)+i)(sqrt(3+i))/((sqrt(3)-i)(sqrt(3)+i))) = (2+2isqrt(3))/(4) = 1/2+1/2isqrt(3)`
`therefore tanalpha=(|"Im"(z)|)/("Re"(z)|)=sqrt(3) rArr alpha=pi/3`
Clearly,the point representing z lies in the first quadrant.
`therefore "pr.arg(z)"=alpha=pi/3`
