B8

Step-by-step explanation

$\begin{aligned} & |z|=1 \\ & \left|\frac{z}{\bar{z}}+\frac{\bar{z}}{z}\right|=1 \\ & \Rightarrow\left|z^2+(\bar{z})^2\right|=1 \end{aligned}$ Let $\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow\left|(x+i y)^2+(x-i y)^2\right|=1 \\ & \Rightarrow\left|2 x^2-2 y^2\right|=1 \\ & \Rightarrow\left|x^2-y^2\right|=\frac{1}{2} \\ & \Rightarrow x^2-y^2=\frac{ \pm 1}{2} \\ & \text { and } x^2+y^2=1 \end{aligned}$ Case I: Case II:
