Additional Complex Number Problems 2

1. A variable complex number z is described by | z |= 3 , while a fixed point c is represented by

the complex number 4 + i. By plotting these on an Argand diagram, find the minimum and

maximum values of | z + c | . If another complex number w is described the loci | w − 8 |= 1,

plot w on the same diagram and hence determine the minimum and maximum values of | w − z | .
