If the equation a | z | 2 + α ¯ z + α z ¯ ¯ + d = 0 represents a circle where a , d…

If the equation a|z|2+α¯z+αz¯¯+d=0 represents a circle where a,d are real constants then which of the following condition is correct?
  1. |α|2-ad0
  2. |α|2-ad>0 and aR-{0}
  3. |α|2-ad0 and aR 
  4. α=0,a,dR+

Solution

Given a|z|2+α¯z+αz¯¯+d=0

z2=zz¯ & α¯z+αz¯¯=α¯z¯+αz¯¯=αz¯+α¯z

Then, azz¯+αz¯+α¯z+d=0 or zz¯+αaz¯+α¯az+da=0 is the equation of circle. 

Centre =-αa, radius, r=αα¯a2-da=αα¯-ada2

αa2-da0 for the equation to represent circle.

So, |α|2-ad>0 and aR-{0}
