$(z + a)(\bar z + a)$, where $a$ is real, is equivalent to

A

$|z - a|$

B

${z^2} + {a^2}$

C

$|z + a{|^2}$

D

None of these

Solution

(c) As we know if $a$ is real, then $a = \overline a $
 $(z + a)(\overline z + a) = (z + a)(\overline z + \overline a ) = (z + a)(\overline {z + a} )$ $ = |z + a{|^2}$
