  • Paper
  • Answer

Let z1=18+83i, z2=18+39i,z_1=18+83i,~z_2=18+39i, and z3=78+99i,z_3=78+99i, where i=−1.i=\sqrt{-1}. Let zz be the unique complex number with the properties that z3−z1z2−z1 ⋅ z−z2z−z3\frac{z_3-z_1}{z_2-z_1}~\cdot~\frac{z-z_2}{z-z_3} is a real number and the imaginary part of zz is the greatest possible. Find the real part of zz.
