Answer:
Correct Answer: 26.(a)
Solution:
Formula:
- Given, $\left|\frac{z-5 i}{z+5 i}\right|=1 \Rightarrow|z-5 i|=|z+5 i|$
$\left[\because\right.$ if $\left|z-z _1\right|=\left|z-z _2\right|$, then it is a perpendicular bisector of $z_1$ and $z_2$]
$\therefore$ Perpendicular bisector of $(0,5)$ and $(0,-5)$ is $X$-axis.
