Exercise · ZW-TOPOLOGY-OF-THE-COMPLEX-PLANE-002 · ★☆☆ Basic
The set \(\{z:|z+2i|<3\}\) is an open disk. What are its center and radius?
Choose one option.
Show answer
- C. Center \(-2i\), radius \(3\)
Explanation
Since \(z+2i=z-(-2i)\), the center is \(-2i\); the radius is the right-hand side, \(3\).
Review the concept: Topology of the complex plane
The structure that open disks \(D\) of center \(z_0\) and radius \(r\) give to \(\mathbb{C}\); with them one defines when a set of points \(z\) is open, closed, bounded or connected.
\[D(z_0,r)=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:|z-z_0|
