he complex number z is defined by z = a + ib, where a and b are real. The complex conjugate of z is denoted by z*.

i) Show that IzI^2 = zz* and (z-ki)* = z* + ki

In an Argand diagram a set of points representing complex numbers z is defined by the equation
I z − 10i I = 2 I z − 4i I.

(ii) Show, by squaring both sides, that zz* − 2iz* + 2iz − 12 = 0.

Hence show that I z− 2i I = 4.
