The correct answer is: Z=1


The minimum value of Z+Z-3 occurs at points on the line segment joining O and A
Similarly, the minimum value of Z+i+Z-3-2i occurs at a point on the line segment joining B and C.
Minimum value of Z+Z-3+Z+i+Z-3-2i occurs at a point on the intersection of OA and BC

Hence, the minimum value occurs at Z=1
