Homework Statement


I have the expression ##a_2 \overline{\beta} + a_3 \beta## involving complex variables, where ##|\beta| \le 1##. I was wondering, is it possible to determine for what ##a_2## and ##a_3## the expression is always real, for every ##\beta## satisfying ##|\beta| \le 1##; or is there insufficient information?
