In this problem we will find the image of the line x = 1 under the complex mapping w = 1/z.

(a) The line x = 1 consists of all points z = 1 + iy where −∞ < y < ∞. Find the real and imaginary parts u and v of f(z) = 1/z at a point z = 1 + iy on this line.


(b) Show that  for the functions u and v from part (a).


(c) Based on part (b), describe the image of the line x = 1 under the complex mapping w = 1/z.


(d) Is there a point on the line x = 1 that maps onto 0? Do you want to alter your description of the image in part (c)?
