The correct answer is: 5

Given that: |z-2-2i|1 which represents a circle with centre at (2,2) and radius =1.

Now |3iz+6|=|3i(z-2i)|=|3i||z-2i|

As we know that,  |z1z2|=|z1||z2|

From tha diagram we can see that, |3iz+6|=3|z-2i| is maximum at z=3+2i because a point on the circle, which has maximum distance from (0,2) is (3,2).

So, a=3 & b=2

a+b=5
