The correct answer is: has infinitely many elements

We know that the complex number z satisfying z-z0=r represents a circle with centre z0 and radius r units.

Hence, for S1=|z-1|2, z lies on and inside the circle
of radius 2 units and centre (1, 0).

For S2, let z=x+iy

Now, (1-i)(z)=(1-i)(x+i y)

(1-i)(z)=x+iy-ix-i2y

(1-i)(z)=x+iy-ix+y

Re((1-i)z)=x+y

x+y1.

And, for S3, again let z=x+iy,

y1.

Plotting all the inequalities on the graph, we get

Now, the common part is shown in the shaded part, hence, we get infinite points in the shaded region.

S1S2S3 has infinitely many elements.
