    The number of solutions for the equations \[|z-1|=|z-2|=\] \[|z-i|\] is  [Orissa JEE 2005]

    A) One solution

    B) 3 solutions

    C) 2 solutions

    D) No solution

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    From \[|z-1|=|z-2|\] Þ \[|x+iy-1|=|x+iy-2|\] Þ \[{{(x-1)}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}={{(x-2)}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}\]Þ \[x=\frac{3}{2}\] Similarly from \[|z-1|=|z-i|\]; \[x=y\] Hence, \[x=\frac{3}{2},\,y=\frac{3}{2}\] Therefore only one solution for the equation.
