    \[R({{z}^{2}})=1\]is represented by

    A) The parabola \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}=1\]

    B) The hyperbola \[{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}=1\]

    C) Parabola or a circle

    D) All the above

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[z=(x+iy)\]Þ \[{{z}^{2}}={{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}+2ixy\] Þ \[\operatorname{Re}({{z}^{2}})=1\]Þ \[{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}=1\], which is a hyperbola.
