Question:

The number of complex numbers $z$ with $|z| = 2$ satisfying $|z + \bar{z}| = |z - \bar{z}|$ is:
(1) $2$
(2) $4$
(3) $1$
(4) $\infty$

Step-by-Step Solution

Key Concept: $z + \bar{z} = 2 \operatorname{Re}(z)$ and $z - \bar{z} = 2i\operatorname{Im}(z)$. The condition forces $|\operatorname{Re}(z)| = |\operatorname{Im}(z)|$. Combine with $|z| = 2$.
