How do you know what part of the semicircle it is when $argdfrac{z-2}{z+2} = dfracpi2$ [closed]












1














I'm not quite sure how to determine whether the semicircle is below or above the x-axis, because in $argdfrac{z-2}{z+2} = dfracpi2$, it lay above the x-axis with a locus of $(4-x^2)^{1/2}$.

$$dfrac{x-2-iy}{x+2+iy}=dfrac{(x-iy)^2-4}{(x+2)^2+y^2}=dfrac{x^2-y^2-4-2xyi}{(x+2)^2+y^2}$$



Using atan2, $$x^2-y^2-4=0$$ and $$-2xy>0iff xy<0$$
