Solution

Let z = x + iy,

z1z+1=x+iy1x+iy+1=x1+iyx+1+iy=(x1+iy)(x+1iy)(x+1+iy)(x+1iy) [Rationalizing the denominator]=(x1+iy)(x+1iy)(x+1)2(iy)2=x2+xixyx1+iy+ixy+iy+y2x2+2x+1+y2=x21+21y+y2x2+2x+1+y2=x2+y21x2+2x+1+y2+i2yx2+2x+1+y2

It is purely imaginary number

real part = 0

=x2+y21x2+2x+1+y2=0=x2+y21=0=x2+y2=1=x2+y2=1|z|=1
