z1 - z3/ z2 - z3 = 1-v3i/2 = e^(-i pi/3)
Therefore, angle between the sides connecting z1,z3 and z2,z3 is pi/3
Also,
| z1-z3| / |z2-z3 | = 1
The two sides are equal in length.
Hence, the triagle is equilateral C)

Dear Student,
Please find below the solution to your problem.

z1 - z3/ z2 - z3 = 1-v3i/2 = e^(-i pi/3)
Therefore, angle between the sides connecting z1,z3 and z2,z3 is pi/3
Also,
| z1-z3| / |z2-z3 | = 1
The two sides are equal in length.
Hence, the triagle is equilateral

Thanks and Regards
