8. The transformation \(T\) from the \(z\)-plane to the \(w\)-plane is given by \[w = \frac{z + 3\mathrm{i}}{1 + \mathrm{i}z}, \quad z \neq \mathrm{i}\]

The transformation \(T\) maps the circle \(|z| = 1\) in the \(z\)-plane onto the line \(l\) in the \(w\)-plane.

(a) Find a cartesian equation of the line \(l\). (5)

The circle \(|z - a - b\mathrm{i}| = c\) in the \(z\)-plane is mapped by \(T\) onto the circle \(|w| = 5\) in the \(w\)-plane.

(b) Find the exact values of the real constants \(a\), \(b\) and \(c\). (6)
