    The complex number \[\frac{(-\sqrt{3}+3i)\,(1-i)}{(3+\sqrt{3}\,i)\,(i)\,(\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{3}i)}\] when represented in the Argand diagram is :

    A)                  in the second quadrant

    B)  in the first quadrant

    C)  on the y-axis (imaginary axis)

    D)  on the x-axis (real axis).

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let \[z=\frac{(-\sqrt{3}+3i)\,(1-i)}{(3+\sqrt{3}i)\,i\,(\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{3}i)}\] \[=\frac{(-\sqrt{3}+3i)(1-i)}{(3i-\sqrt{3})\,\sqrt{3}\,(1+i)}\] \[=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\left( \frac{1-i}{1+i}\times \frac{1-i}{1-i} \right)\] \[=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\left( \frac{1-1-2i}{1+1} \right)\] \[=-\frac{i}{\sqrt{3}}\] The complex number z is represented on y-axis (imaginary axis).
