Given , S= \frac{\alpha +i}{\alpha -i}:\alpha\; \epsilon\; \mathbf{R}

  S=x+iy

x+iy=\frac{\left ( \alpha +i \right )^{2}}{\alpha ^{2}+1}=\frac{\alpha ^{2}-1+2\alpha i}{\alpha ^{2}+1}

x=\frac{\alpha ^{2}-1}{\alpha +1}=y=\frac{2\alpha}{\alpha ^{2}+1}

x^{2}+y^{2}=\frac{\left ( \alpha ^{2}-1^{2} \right )+4\alpha ^{2}}{\left ( \alpha ^{2}+1 \right )^{2}}=1

x^{2}+y^{2}=1


Option 1)

straight line whose slope is 1.

Option 2)

circle whose radius is 1.

Option 3)

circle whose radius is \sqrt{2} .

Option 4)

straight line whose slop is -1
