    If\[|z-3+i|=4,\]then locus of z is:

    A)  \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-6x+2y-6=0\]

    B)         \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-6=0\]

    C)         \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-3x+y-6=0\]

    D)         \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}=0\]

    E)         \[{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}-6x-2y-8=0\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Let\[z=x+iy\] \[\therefore \]  \[|z-3+i|=|x+iy-3+i|\]                                 \[=|x-3+i(1+y)|\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{(x-3)}^{2}}+{{(1+y)}^{2}}=16\]      (given) \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-6x+2y-6=0\]is the required locus.
