  • Abstract
    The zeros of f(z) = (az - b)^{n} \\pm (cz - d)^{n} are found to lie on a circle of radius |(ad - cb)/(|a|^{2} - |c|^{2})| with its center at z = (a^{\\ast }b - c^{\\ast }d)/(|a|^{2} - |c|^{2}) , where a, b, c , and d are complex numbers and n is assumed real. When |a| = |c| the locus of the zeros is a straight line perpendicular to the line joining the points b/a and b/c and intersecting it at z = 0.5(b/a + d/c) . The zeros are found analytically and constructed geometrically.
