Question 1180534: Find all solutions to the below equation, |z + 5 - 2i| =3 , where z is a complex number,
and sketch the set of solutions on the complex plane. Found 2 solutions by ikleyn, Edwin McCravy:Answer by ikleyn(52788) (Show Source):
This equation is equivalent to
| z - (-5 + 2i) | = 3.
It describes all the points in complex plane, that are remoted exactly 3 units from the point (-5 + 2i) on the the complex plane.
So, the solution to this equations are all those points in complex plane, that are remoted 3 units from the point (-5 + 2i).
In other words, the solution to this equations are the points on the complex plane that represent the circle
of the radius of 3 units centered at the point (-5 + 2i).
