Problem

The complex number z1z_1 is defined as

z1=(cos5π12+isin5π12)4(cosπ3isinπ3)3\begin{align*} z_1 ={}& \frac{\left(\cos \frac{5\pi}{12} + \mathrm{i}\sin \frac{5\pi}{12}\right)^4} {\left(\cos \frac{\pi}{3} - \mathrm{i}\sin \frac{\pi}{3}\right)^3} \end{align*}

(a) Without using your calculator show that

z1=cos2π3+isin2π3\begin{align*} z_1 ={}& \cos \frac{2\pi}{3} + \mathrm{i}\sin \frac{2\pi}{3} \end{align*}
(4)

(b) Shade, on a single Argand diagram, the region RR defined by

zz11and0arg(zz1)3π4\begin{align*} |z - z_1| \leqslant 1 \qquad \text{and} \qquad 0 \leqslant \arg(z - z_1) \leqslant \frac{3\pi}{4} \end{align*}
(4)

Given that the complex number zz lies in RR

(c) determine the smallest possible positive value of argz\arg z

复数已经写成 cosθ+isinθ\cos\theta+\mathrm{i}\sin\theta 的形式,所以直接用 De Moivre’s theorem。注意分母中间是减号,要先写成角度为 π3-\frac{\pi}{3} 的形式。

For the numerator,

(cos5π12+isin5π12)4=cos(45π12)+isin(45π12)=cos5π3+isin5π3\begin{align*} \left(\cos \frac{5\pi}{12} +\mathrm{i}\sin \frac{5\pi}{12}\right)^4 ={}& \cos\left(4\cdot\frac{5\pi}{12}\right) +\mathrm{i}\sin\left(4\cdot\frac{5\pi}{12}\right)\\[4mm] ={}& \cos\frac{5\pi}{3}+\mathrm{i}\sin\frac{5\pi}{3} \end{align*}

For the denominator,

cosπ3isinπ3=cos(π3)+isin(π3)\begin{align*} \cos\frac{\pi}{3}-\mathrm{i}\sin\frac{\pi}{3} ={}& \cos\left(-\frac{\pi}{3}\right) +\mathrm{i}\sin\left(-\frac{\pi}{3}\right) \end{align*}

Hence

(cosπ3isinπ3)3=cos(π)+isin(π)\begin{align*} \left(\cos\frac{\pi}{3}-\mathrm{i}\sin\frac{\pi}{3}\right)^3 ={}& \cos(-\pi)+\mathrm{i}\sin(-\pi) \end{align*}

When dividing complex numbers in modulus-argument form, subtract the arguments:

z1=cos(5π3(π))+isin(5π3(π))=cos8π3+isin8π3=cos(8π32π)+isin(8π32π)=cos2π3+isin2π3\begin{align*} z_1 ={}& \cos\left(\frac{5\pi}{3}-(-\pi)\right) +\mathrm{i}\sin\left(\frac{5\pi}{3}-(-\pi)\right)\\[4mm] ={}& \cos\frac{8\pi}{3}+\mathrm{i}\sin\frac{8\pi}{3}\\[4mm] ={}& \cos\left(\frac{8\pi}{3}-2\pi\right) +\mathrm{i}\sin\left(\frac{8\pi}{3}-2\pi\right)\\[4mm] ={}& \cos\frac{2\pi}{3}+\mathrm{i}\sin\frac{2\pi}{3} \end{align*}

zz11|z-z_1|\leqslant 1 表示以 z1z_1 为圆心、半径为 11 的圆内区域。arg(zz1)\arg(z-z_1) 是从圆心 z1z_1 出发看点 zz 的方向角,所以区域是圆内从水平向右射线逆时针扫到 3π4\frac{3\pi}{4} 的扇形。

First write the centre in Cartesian form:

z1=cos2π3+isin2π3=12+32i\begin{align*} z_1 ={}& \cos\frac{2\pi}{3}+\mathrm{i}\sin\frac{2\pi}{3}\\[4mm] ={}& -\frac12+\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\mathrm{i} \end{align*}

On a single Argand diagram:

  • plot the centre z1=(12,32)z_1=\left(-\frac12,\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\right);
  • draw the circle with centre z1z_1 and radius 11;
  • draw the ray from z1z_1 parallel to the positive real axis;
  • draw the ray from z1z_1 making angle 3π4\frac{3\pi}{4} anticlockwise from that ray;
  • shade the part inside the circle between these two rays.

要让 argz\arg z 最小,点 zz 要尽量靠近正实轴方向。扇形里最靠右的边界点是从圆心 z1z_1 沿水平向右走一个半径到圆周上的点。

The smallest positive argument occurs at the right-hand end of the horizontal radius of the circle:

z=z1+1=(12+32i)+1=12+32i\begin{align*} z ={}& z_1+1\\[4mm] ={}& \left(-\frac12+\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\mathrm{i}\right)+1\\[4mm] ={}& \frac12+\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\mathrm{i} \end{align*}

Therefore

argz=arctan(3212)=arctan(3)=π3\begin{align*} \arg z ={}& \arctan\left(\frac{\frac{\sqrt3}{2}}{\frac12}\right)\\[4mm] ={}& \arctan(\sqrt3)\\[4mm] ={}& \frac{\pi}{3} \end{align*}

So the smallest possible positive value of argz\arg z is

π3\begin{align*} \boxed{\frac{\pi}{3}} \end{align*}
