Solution

The correct option is C Square
We have,
|zz1|=|zz2|=|zz3|=|zz4|
Therefore, the point having affix z is equidistant from the four points having affixes z1,z2,z3,z4.
Thus z is either the centre of a circle having z1,z2,z3,z4 on its circumference (or)
Point of intersection of diagonals of a square or rectangle having z1,z2,z3,z4 as its vertices as diagonals gets bisected each other.
