MCQ
If $|z|\, = 4$ and $arg\,\,z = \frac{{5\pi }}{6},$then $z =$
  • A
    $2\sqrt 3 - 2i$
  • B
    $2\sqrt 3 + 2i$
  • $ - 2\sqrt 3 + 2i$
  • D
    $ - \sqrt 3 + i$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$ - 2\sqrt 3 + 2i$
c
(c)$|z| = 4$and $arg\,z = \frac{{5\pi }}{6} = {150^o}$
Let $z = x + iy$, then $|z| = r = \sqrt {{x^2} + {y^2}} = 4$
and $\theta = \frac{{5\pi }}{6} = {150^o}$
$\therefore $ $x = r\cos \theta = 4\cos \,\,{150^o} = - 2\sqrt 3 $.
and $y = r\sin \theta = 4$$\sin {150^o} = 4\frac{1}{2} = 2$
$\therefore $ $z = x + iy = - 2\sqrt 3 + 2i$
Trick : Since $arg\,z = \frac{{5\pi }}{6} = {150^o}$,

here the complex number must lie in second quadrant, so $(a) $ and $(b)$ rejected. Also $|z| = 4$ which satisfies $(c)$ only.
