Ifz1,z2andz3represent the vertices of an equilateral triangle such thatz1=z2=z3then

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Since, z1=z2=z3.

z1-0=z2-0=z3-0.

Thus, the given points are equidistant from origin, and we know that the point which is equidistant from the vertices of a triangle is the circumcentre of the triangle.

 0 is the circumcentre of an equilateral ABC and we also know that for an equilateral triangle the centroid and circumcentre are same.

 x1+x2+x33=0=y1+y2+y33

where, z1=x1+iy1.

x1+x2+x33+iy1+y2+y33=0

x1+iy1+x2+iy2+x3+iy3=0

z1+z2+z3=0.
