4. Let R represents iz. We know that the transformation z → iz

corresponds to a rotation anticlockwise about O through the
π
angle in the Argand diagram. Therefore OPQP is a square.
2
Hence OPQ is a right-angled triangle.

5. π
Since OPQ is an equilateral triangle, ∠POQ = .

π
∴ z2 = z1 ⋅ cis

2π ⎛ 2π ⎞ π
z12 + z22 = z12 + z12 ⋅ cis = z12 ⎜ 1 + cis ⎟ = z1 ⋅ cis

∴ z12 + z22 = z1 z2
