Question

If |z1 - 1| < 1, |z2 - 2| < 2, |z3 - 3| < 3, then |z1 + z2 + z3|

Options

A.is less than 6
B.is more than 3
C.is less than 12
D.lies between 6 and 12

Solution

|(z1 - 1) + (z2 - 2) + (z3 - 3)| ≤ |z1 - 1| + |z2 - z| + |z3 - 3|
⇒  |z1 + z2 + z3 - 6| < 6               
Let  z = z1 + z2 + z3 = 3
then  |z - 6| < 6 is circular disc
Clearly  |z| < 12
