Q. The shaded region, where $P \equiv ( - 1,\ 0),\ Q \equiv ( - 1 + \sqrt{2},\ \sqrt{2})$ $R \equiv \left( - 1 + \sqrt{2},\ - \sqrt{2} \right),\ S \equiv (1,\ 0)$ is represented by

A) $|z + 1| > 2,\ |\arg{(z + 1) < \frac{\pi}{4}}|$
B) $|z + 1| < 2,\arg{(z + 1) < \frac{\pi}{2}}$
C) $|z - 1| > 2,\arg{(z + 1) > \frac{\pi}{4}}$
D) $|z - 1| < 2,|\arg{(z + 1) > \frac{\pi}{4}}$
Explanation

(a)
Here, $|PQ| = |PS| = |PR| = 2$
$\therefore$ Shaded part represents the external part of circle having centre (-1, 0) and radius 2

As we know equation of circle having centre $z_{0}$ and radius $r$, is
$\left| z - z_{0} \right| = r$
$\therefore\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |z—( - 1 + 0i)| > 2$
$\Rightarrow \ \ \ \ |z + 1| > 2$ …(i)
Also, argument of $z + 1$ with represent to positive direction of $x$-axis is $\pi/4\$
$\therefore\ \ \arg{(z + 1) \leq \frac{\pi}{4}}$
And argument of $z + 1$ in anti-clockwise direction is $–\pi/4$.
$\therefore\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ - \frac{\pi}{4} \leq \arg(z + 1)$
$\Rightarrow \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\arg(z + 1)| \leq \frac{\pi}{4}$
