Using the definition of complex numbers as we studied in Definition of Complex Number -

z=x+iy, x,y\epsilon R  & i2=-1

-

Real part of z = Re (z) = x & Imaginary part of z = Im (z) = y

 we can say, \frac{iz-2}{z-i}=\frac{ix-y-2}{x+iy-i}=\frac{-y-2+ix}{x+i(y-1)}

Proceeding further by Division of Complex Numbers -

\frac{a+ib}{c+id}=\frac{ac+bd}{c^{2}+d^{2}}+i\frac{bc-ad}{c^{2}+d^{2}}

-  

We have, \frac{-yx-2x+xy-x}{x^{2}+(y-1)^{2}}+i\frac{x^{2}+y^{2}+y-2}{x^{2}+(y-1)^{2}}

It has been given that the Imaginary part of this complex number is -1.

Therefore, \frac{x^{2}+y^{2}+y-2}{x^{2}+(y-1)^{2}}=-1\Rightarrow 2x^{2}+2y^{2}-y-1=0\Rightarrow x^{2}+y^{2}-(1/2)y-(1/2)=0

Whose radius is:\sqrt{\frac{1}{16}+\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{9}{16}}=\frac{3}{4}
