The closest distance of the origin from ...

The closest distance of the origin from a curve given as `Abarz+barAz+AbarA=0` is: (A is a complex number).

A

1 unit

B

`("Re"(A))/(|A|)`

C

`(I_(m)(A))/(|A|)`

D

`1/2|A|`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Let 'd' be the required distance. Then,
d=Length of the perpendicular from the origin on the line `Abarz+barAz+AbarA=0`
`rArr d=(A xx 0+barA xx 0 + AbarA)/(2|A|) = (|A|^(2))/(2|A|) = |A|/2`
