12. The transformation \(T\) from the \(z\)-plane, where \(z = x + \mathrm{i}y\), to the \(w\)-plane, where \(w = u + \mathrm{i}v\), is given by \[w = \frac{z + \mathrm{i}}{z}, \qquad z \neq 0.\]

(a) The transformation \(T\) maps the points on the line with equation \(y = x\) in the \(z\)-plane, other than \((0, 0)\), to points on a line \(l\) in the \(w\)-plane. Find a cartesian equation of \(l\). (5)
(b) Show that the image, under \(T\), of the line with equation \(x + y + 1 = 0\) in the \(z\)-plane is a circle \(C\) in the \(w\)-plane, where \(C\) has cartesian equation \[u^2 + v^2 - u + v = 0.\] (7)
(c) On the same Argand diagram, sketch \(l\) and \(C\). (3)
