Case 1: Both 12 and PP are above the real axis. In this case, ,0bd > . Hence ( ) ( ) ( )22 2 2 31 1 0 Im 0a bd c db z−+ + −+ + <⇒ < . So 3P is below the real axis. Case 2: Both 12 and PP are below the real axis. In this case, ,0bd < . Hence ( ) ( ) ( )22 2 2 31 1 0 Im 0a bd c db z−+ + −+ + >⇒ > . So 3P is above the real axis. Note: The case where 12 and PP are on opposite sides of the real axis automatically establishes the hypothesis to be proved and so need not be considered.
