    If\[{{z}_{1}}\]and\[{{z}_{2}}\]are two non-zero complex numbers such that\[|{{z}_{1}}+{{z}_{2}}|=|{{z}_{1}}|+|{{z}_{2}}|,\]then arg\[\left( \frac{{{z}_{1}}}{{{z}_{2}}} \right)\]is equal to

    A)  \[0\]                                    

    B)  \[-\pi \]

    C)  \[-\frac{\pi }{2}\]                            

    D)         \[\frac{\pi }{2}\]

    E)  \[\pi \]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Given, \[|{{z}_{1}}+{{z}_{2}}|=|{{z}_{1}}|+|{{z}_{2}}|\] Let          \[{{z}_{1}}={{x}_{1}}+i{{y}_{1}}\]                 \[{{z}_{2}}={{x}_{2}}+i{{y}_{2}}\] \[|({{x}_{1}}+{{x}_{2}})+i({{y}_{1}}+{{y}_{2}})|=|{{x}_{1}}+i{{y}_{1}}|\]                                                 \[+|{{x}_{2}}+i{{y}_{2}}|\] \[\sqrt{{{({{x}_{1}}+{{x}_{2}})}^{2}}+{{({{y}_{1}}+{{y}_{2}})}^{2}}}=\sqrt{x_{1}^{2}+y_{1}^{2}}\]                                                 \[+\sqrt{x_{2}^{2}+y_{2}^{2}}\] Squaring on both sides \[x_{1}^{2}+x_{2}^{2}+2{{x}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}+y_{1}^{2}+y_{2}^{2}+2{{y}_{1}}{{y}_{2}}\] \[=x_{1}^{2}+y_{1}^{2}+x_{2}^{2}+y_{2}^{2}+2\sqrt{(x_{1}^{2}+y_{1}^{2})(x_{2}^{2}+y_{2}^{2})}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[2{{({{x}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}+{{y}_{1}}{{y}_{2}})}^{2}}=2\sqrt{(x_{1}^{2}+y_{1}^{2})(x_{2}^{2}+y_{2}^{2})}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{({{x}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}+{{y}_{1}}{{y}_{2}})}^{2}}=(x_{1}^{2}+y_{1}^{2})(x_{2}^{2}+y_{2}^{2})\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[x_{1}^{2}x_{2}^{2}+y_{1}^{2}y_{2}^{2}+2{{x}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}{{y}_{1}}{{y}_{2}}\]                                 \[=x_{1}^{2}x_{2}^{2}+x_{2}^{2}y_{1}^{2}+x_{1}^{2}y_{2}^{2}+y_{1}^{2}y_{2}^{2}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[2{{x}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}{{y}_{1}}{{y}_{2}}=x_{2}^{2}y_{1}^{2}+x_{1}^{2}y_{2}^{2}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{(-{{x}_{1}}{{y}_{1}}+{{y}_{1}}{{x}_{1}})}^{2}}=0\]        ?? (i)                 \[=\frac{({{x}_{1}}+i{{y}_{1}})({{x}_{2}}-i{{y}_{2}})}{(x_{2}^{2}-y_{2}^{2})}\]                 \[=\frac{({{x}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}+{{y}_{1}}{{y}_{2}})}{(x_{2}^{2}-y_{2}^{2})}+i\frac{({{y}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}-{{x}_{1}}{{y}_{2}})}{(x_{2}^{2}-y_{2}^{2})}\] \[\arg \left( \frac{{{z}_{1}}}{{{z}_{2}}} \right)={{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \frac{\operatorname{Im}({{z}_{1}}/{{z}_{2}})}{\operatorname{Re}({{z}_{1}}/{{z}_{2}})} \right)\] \[={{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \frac{{{y}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}-{{x}_{1}}{{y}_{2}}}{{{x}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}+{{y}_{1}}{{y}_{2}}} \right)\] \[={{\tan }^{-1}}(0)=0\]                [from Eq.(i)]
