Let A={z∈C:1≤∣z−(1+i)∣≤2} and B={z∈A:∣z−(1−i)∣=1}. Then, B:
(A)is an empty set
(B)contains exactly two elements
(C)contains exactly three elements
(D)is an infinite set✓ Correct
Answer: (D)
Solution
Set A represents the annular region in the complex plane centered at (1+i) with inner radius 1 and outer radius 2. Set B is the intersection of A with the circle centered at (1−i) with radius 1. The distance between centers (1+i) and (1−i) is ∣2i∣=2. Since the circle ∣z−(1−i)∣=1 passes through the annular region A, their intersection A∩B forms an arc, which contains infinitely many points. Therefore, B is an infinite set.
