Let `x,y,z in` C satisfy `|X| = 1,|y-6-8i| = 3 and |z + 1-7i| = 5` respectively, then the minimum value of `|x-z| + |y-z|` is equal toA. `1`B. `2`C. `5`D. `6`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
To find minimum valume of `|x-z| + |y-z|`, we know that
` |z_(1)+z_(2)| le |z_(1)|+ |z_(2)|" " AA z_(1),z_(2) in C`
`therefore |x-z|+|y-z|ge |(x-z)+(-y+z)|`
`implies E ge |x-y|`
Also, equality holds when x,y,z are collinear points.
`therefore |x-y|_(min) =c_(1)c_(2)-(r_(1)+r_(2))`
`10-(1+3)=10-4=6`
