Let $$z$$ be a complex number such that $$\left|\frac{z-2i}{z+i}\right| = 2$$, $$z \neq -i$$. Then $$z$$ lies on the circle of radius 2 and centre

Given: $$\left|\frac{z - 2i}{z + i}\right| = 2$$

Let $$z = x + iy$$.

$$|z - 2i|^2 = 4|z + i|^2$$

$$x^2 + (y-2)^2 = 4[x^2 + (y+1)^2]$$

$$x^2 + y^2 - 4y + 4 = 4x^2 + 4y^2 + 8y + 4$$

$$0 = 3x^2 + 3y^2 + 12y$$

$$x^2 + y^2 + 4y = 0$$

$$x^2 + (y+2)^2 = 4$$

This is a circle with centre $$(0, -2)$$ and radius 2.

The correct answer is Option 4: (0, -2).
