The correct answer is: a+ib1+c

Given that

a2 + b2 +c2 = 1 & b +ic = 1 + az

z = b+ic1+a

iz = -c+ib1+a

By componendo and dividendo

1+iz1-iz=1+a-c+ib1+a+c-ib

1+iz1-iz=1+a-c+ib1+a+c-ib×1+a+c+ib1+a+c+ib

1+iz1-iz=1+a+ib2-c21+a+c2-ib2

1+iz1-iz=1+a2-b2+2a+2ib+2iab-c21+a2+c2+2ac+2a+2c+b2

We know that a2+b2+c2=1

1+iz1-iz=1+a2-1+a2+2a+2ib(1+a)2+2a+2c1+a

1+iz1-iz=1+a2a+2ib2+2c1+a=a+ib1+c.
