Can someone help me with Part (ii)

For a blue pen to be in the left pocket once operation T takes place, a red pen must've been chosen from the left pocket followed by red pen from right pocket (1st) OR a blue pen chosen from left pocket and a blue pen chosen from right pocket(2nd).
For 1st scenario: (3/4)*(4/5)=0.6
2nd: (1/4)*(2/5)=0.1
0.6+0.1=0.7

You must find the combinations when only the batsman is being included in the squad(1st), only the bowler is being included in the squad(2nd) and when none of them are being included(3rd).
1st: 1C1(for the batsman having a confirmed place)*6C4*4C4(bowler has been excluded here)*2C1*2C1=60
2nd: 6C5*1C1(bowler having confirmed place)*4C3*2C1*2C1=96
3rd: 6C5(batsman excluded)*4C4(bowlers excluded)*2C1*2C1=24
24+96+60=180

In the third why are we excluding both the batsman and the bowler.

|z-10i|=2|z-4i|
(z-10i)(z+10i)=4(z-4i)(z+41) - using the concept from first equation in (i)
(z-10i)(z-10i)*=4(z-4i)(z-4i)* - now use concept from 2nd equation in (ii)
(z-10i)(z*+10i)=4(z-4i)(z*+4i)
zz*+10iz-10iz*+100=4(zz*+4iz-4iz*+16)
3zz*+6iz-6iz*-36=0
3(zz*-2iz*+2iz-12)=0 - first part proven
|z-2i|=(z-2i)(z*+2i)=zz*-2iz*+2iz+4
Now compare this with the earlier equation we have proven. If we subtract 16 from this new equation, both the equations would be equal right? So...
zz*-2iz*+2iz+4=4^2 - notice i out 4^2 not 16 because we were squaring both sides of the equation as the question had told us to do earlier.
Hence radius=4 making the equation |z-2i|=4
Can I work the 2nd part like this....
zz*-2iz*+2iz-12=0
zz*-2iz*+2iz+4-16=0
zz*-2iz*+2iz-4i²-16=0
z*(z-2i)+2i(z-2i)=4²
(z-2i)(z*+2i)=4²
(z-2i)(z-2i)*=4²
|z-2i|²=4²
|z-2i|=4
P.s can we take z-2i as whole in place of z because the statements in (i) are for z?

That works well too.

hellodjfos;s'ff in these questions how do we know that we have to take x in radians or degrees?
Usually they tell us whether to use radians or degrees. For complex number questions, try to use radians always (since that's the conventional rule) but they do accept answers in degrees. For a question like this where it's unclear whether to use radians or degrees, just look at how reasonable the trigonometric term is... so try out different values of x in sin(x/3) in degrees and radians mode and see which is more reasonable. Since most values of x produce a value too small in degree mode and most values of x produce a value large enough in radians, we do this question in radians.

arg(u*/u) means arg(u*)-arg(u)
so arg(u*/u)=arg(u*)-arg(u)
Find these arguments and you will be able to prove the equation.
u is 3-i and u* 3+i
The problem is when it would be written as arg(u*)-arg(u), which would be tan-¹(1/3)-tan-¹(-1/3), what would be done to the minus sign in arg(u)?

-tan-¹(1/3) and tan-¹(-1/3) are the same so tan-¹(1/3)-tan-¹(-1/3) becomes tan-¹(1/3)+tan-¹(1/3) hence 2tan-¹(1/3)
