Agreement on a line propagates by reflection

For z = x + iy $\in C$ , let f(z) = u(x, y) + iv(x, y) define an entire function. Consider the function g(z) = u(x, −y) − iv(x, −y), for z = x + iy $\in C$ . Suppose that v(x, 0) = 0 for all $x \in R$ . Define E = { $z \in C$ | f(z) = g(z)}. Which of the following statements is true?

A.E is the real axis.
B.E is the imaginary axis.
C.E contains an open subset of $C$ , but $E \neq = C$ .
D. $E = C$ ✓

You have the answer. Trap Analysis is why the other three were written.
