12 · |w| = |3iz| = 3|i||z| = 3 × 4 = 12.
u = 2 - y, v = x · iz = i(x + iy) = -y + ix, so w = (2 - y) + ix, giving u = 2 - y and v = x.
2xy · Expanding (x + iy)² gives real part x² - y² and imaginary part 2xy.
True · Adding i lifts every real point one unit up to imaginary part 1.
1 · Polynomials are continuous, so the limit is f(1 + i) = (1 + i)² + 1 = 2i + 1, whose real part is 1.
For every epsilon > 0, all such z close enough to z0 give |f(z) - L| < epsilon for one finite L · The definition requires one finite L that works for every positive epsilon over all sufficiently close inputs in the punctured domain, regardless of f(z0).
Centre 2, radius 3 · |w - 2| = |3z| = 3|z| = 3, so the image is the circle with centre 2 and radius 3.
False · The diagonal path can disagree even when both axes agree, as xy/(x²+y²) shows.
v² = 16(4 - u) · Expanding (2 + it)² gives u = 4 - t² and v = 4t, so v² = 16(4 - u).
Parabola v² = 4(u + 1) · Expanding gives u = t² - 1 and v = 2t, so v² = 4(u + 1), a parabola opening right.
