The locus represented by

|z-1| = |z+i|

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

A line through the origin

Option C (A line through the origin) is correct because the equation |z-1| = |z+i| represents the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining 1 and -i, which is the line x + y = 0, passing through the origin.
