(2.4) Solve the equation z 2 − 2z + 2 = 0.
Write z = x + iy where x, y are real. Then
z 2 − 2z + 2 = (x + iy)(x + iy) − 2(x + iy) + 2
= x2 − y 2 + i2xy − 2x − i2y + 2
= (x2 − y 2 − 2x + 2) + i(2xy − 2y)
If z 2 − 2z + 2 = 0 then both x2 − y 2 − 2x + 2 = 0 and 2xy − 2y = 0. We begin with the
equation from the imaginary part.

If y = 0, then x2 − 2x + 2 = 0 which has no real solutions (the discriminant b2 − 4ac =
(−2)2 − 4(1)(2) = −4). Since x is assumed to be real, no solutions result from y = 0.
If x = 1, then
12 − y 2 − 2(1) + 2 = 0
1 = y2
±1 = y
There are two solutions, z = 1 + i and z = 1 − i.

(z −1 )−1 = z

(3.4) Prove that if z1 z2 z3 = 0, then at least one of the three factors is zero.
First note that we can rewrite z1 z2 z3 = 0 as (z1 z2 )z3 = 0.
We have already shown that if z4 z5 = 0, then either z4 = 0 or z5 = 0. Using this fact
with z4 = z1 z2 and z5 = z3 , then either z1 z2 = 0 or z3 = 0. But if z1 z2 = 0, then either
z1 = 0 or z2 = 0.
So either z1 = 0, z2 = 0 or z3 = 0.
(4.A) Prove that |z1 + z2 | ≥ |z1 | − |z2 | for every pair of complex numbers z1 and z2 .
The trick to proving this inequality is to notice that if you move the |z2 | to the other
side, the inequality can be written as
|z1 | ≤ |z1 + z2 | + |z2 |
This is very similar to the Triangle Inequality. In fact, it follows directly from the triangle
inequality and the fact that |z1 | = |(z1 + z2 ) − z2 |. Apply the Triangle Inequality to that
expression and you get
|z1 | = |(z1 + z2 ) − z2 | ≤ |z1 + z2 | + | − z2 | = |z1 + z2 | + |z2 |
which (once you move the |z2 | back over) is what we needed to prove.

The book has a hint, suggesting we use the fact that (|x| − |y|)2 ≥ 0 because (|x| − |y|) is
real so the square makes it positive. Remember that |Re z| = |x| and |Im z| = |y|. We will

rearrange the hint inequality to get the inequality we need to prove.

(4.5) Sketch the set of points determined by the given conditions.
(a) |z − 1 + i| = 1 can be rewritten as |z − (1 − i)| = 1, so this equation represents the
circle with center 1 − i and radius 1.
(b) |z + i| ≤ 3 is the same as |z − (−i)| ≤ 3, which represents the points which are a
distance 3 or less from −i. In other words, the circle centered at −i with radius 3, along
with its inside.
(c) |z − 4i| ≥ 4 represents the points which are a distance 4 or more from 4i. In other
words, the circle centered at 4i with radius 4, along with everything outside that circle.
