Analysis:

To find the real part of the complex number z, we need to simplify the expression and separate the real and imaginary parts. Let's tackle the problem step by step.

Step 1: Simplify the expression

We have the complex number z = (5 + 2i) / (2 - 5i) - (3 - 4i) / (4 + 3i) - 1 / i.

To simplify this expression, we need to rationalize the denominators.

Step 1.1: Rationalize the first fraction

To rationalize the denominator of the first fraction, we multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator.

(5 + 2i) / (2 - 5i) = ((5 + 2i) * (2 + 5i)) / ((2 - 5i) * (2 + 5i))
= (10 + 25i + 4i + 10i^2) / (4 + 10i - 10i - 25i^2)
= (10 + 29i - 10) / (4 + 25)
= (-1 + 29i) / 29
= -1/29 + i

Step 1.2: Rationalize the second fraction

To rationalize the denominator of the second fraction, we multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator.

(3 - 4i) / (4 + 3i) = ((3 - 4i) * (4 - 3i)) / ((4 + 3i) * (4 - 3i))
= (12 - 9i - 16i + 12i^2) / (16 - 9i + 9i - 9i^2)
= (12 - 25i + 12) / (16 + 9)
= (24 - 25i) / 25
= 24/25 - i

Step 1.3: Simplify the third fraction

To simplify the third fraction, we know that the imaginary unit i can be written as i = √(-1).

1 / i = 1 / √(-1) = 1 / (√1 * √(-1)) = 1 / √1 * √(-1) = 1 / 1 * √(-1) = √(-1) = i

Step 2: Combine the simplified fractions

Now that we have simplified the fractions, let's combine them.

z = -1/29 + i - 24/25 + i - i

Combining like terms, we get:

z = -1/29 - 24/25

Step 3: Find the real part

To find the real part of z, we disregard the imaginary part (the term with i) and focus only on the real numbers.

The real part of z = -1/29 - 24/25 is -1/29 - 24/25 = (-25 - 696) / (29 * 25) = -721 / (725) = -1442 / 1450 = -721 / 725 = -1
