Solution

Given that z1, z2 and z3, z4 are two pairs of conjugate complex numbers.

z1=r1eiθ1, z2=r1e-iθ1, z3=r2eiθ2 and z4=r2e-iθ2

Then,
z1z4=r1eiθ1r2e-iθ2=r1r2eiθ1-θ2argz1z4=θ1-θ2 ...(1)
and
z2z3=r1e-iθ1r2eiθ2=r1r2ei-θ1+θ2argz2z3=θ2-θ1 ...(2)

argz1z4+argz2z3=θ1-θ2-θ1+θ2 =0

Hence, argz1z4+argz2z3=0.
