If , , and are the vertices of a triangle whose area is units then the value of is
Explanation for the correct option.
Step 1. Find the vertices of the triangle.
Let be the complex number, now is defined as:
And the complex number is defined as:
As , , and are the vertices of a triangle, so the coordinates of the vertices are: .
Step 2. Find the value of
The area of the triangle having vertices as is given as:
But the area of the triangle is units. So,
Now, for the complex number , the modulus is given as:
So, the value of is .
Hence, the correct option is B.
