Sorry.......i don't have a scanner :(

But he has written the question likewise. We just need to find arg((z-1)/(z-i)) in the three cases.

In other words : arg(z-1) - arg(z-i)

Here are my answers.

I managed to get the answer for part (a).

I don't mean to be rude Sir, but I still don't understand how you did parts (b) and (c) :(

Would you mind to elaborate a bit more, please?

The method is basically the same The triangle in the circle is a right angled triangle. I also used z shapes and similar triangles.
