Solution
The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion Let z1=a+ib&z2=c+id z1+z2=a+ib+c+id=a+c+i(b+d) Since z1+z2 is real, therefore b+d=0 ⇒b=−d z1z2=(a+ib)(c+id)=ac−bd+i(bc+ad) Since z1z2 is real, therefore bc+ad=0 ∵b=−d∴c=a ⇒z2=a−ib∴z1=¯z2 Since, z1z2 is real ∴arg(z1z2)=0 Ans: A
