Given that

z₁ = 15 (cos(90°) + i sin(90°))

z₂ = 3 (cos(10°) + i sin(80°))

we get the quotient z₁/z₂ by dividing the moduli and subtracting the arguments:

z₁/z₂ = 15/3 (cos(90° - 10°) + i sin(90° - 10°))

z₁/z₂ = 5 (cos(80°) + i sin(80°))

so that z₁ is scaled by a factor of 1/3 and is rotated 10° clockwise.
