\mathrm{ \begin{aligned} & \text 2+e^{i \theta}=\frac{3}{\lambda x+i \mu y} \\\\ & \Rightarrow 2+\cos \theta+i \sin \theta=\frac{3}{\lambda x+i \mu y} \\\\ & \Rightarrow \cos \theta+i \sin \theta=\frac{(3-2 \lambda x)-2 i \mu y}{\lambda x+i \cdot \mu y} \end{aligned} }
On taking modulus to both sides,

\mathrm{ \begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow 1=\frac{\sqrt{(3-2 \lambda x)^2+(-2 \mu y)^2}}{\sqrt{(\lambda x)^2+(\mu y)^2}} \\\\ & \Rightarrow \lambda^2 x^2+\mu^2 y^2=9-12 \lambda x+4 \lambda^2 x^2+4 \mu^2 y^2 \\\\ & \Rightarrow \lambda^2 x^2+\mu^2 y^2-4 \lambda x+3=0\, \, \, \, ....(A) \end{aligned} }

This is the locus of \mathrm{P(x, y)}
(a) If \mathrm{\lambda=1, \mu=2} then (A) becomes \mathrm{x^2+4 y^2-4 x+3=0}

\mathrm{ \Rightarrow(x-2)^2+4 y^2=1 \Rightarrow \frac{(x-2)^2}{1^2}+\frac{y^2}{1 / 4}=1 \text {, } }
which is an ellipse.

(b) If \mathrm{\mu=0, \lambda=1 \, \, then \, \, (A) \, \, becomes \, \, x^2-4 x+3=0}

\Rightarrow x=1,3; which represents a pair of straight lines.

(c) If  \mathrm{\lambda=\mu=1} then (A) becomes \mathrm{x^2+y^2-4 x+3=0}

\mathrm{\Rightarrow(x-2)^2+y^2=1}, which is a circle.
