The answer is B.

hint: \[\begin{gathered} {z_1} = 5\exp \left( {i25} \right) \hfill \\ {z_2} = 2\exp \left( {i80} \right) \hfill \\ \frac{{{z_1}}}{{{z_2}}} = \frac{{5\exp \left( {i25} \right)}}{{2\exp \left( {i80} \right)}} = \frac{5}{2}\exp \left( { - i55} \right) = ...? \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

hint: \[\exp \left( { - i55} \right) = \cos \left( { - 55 + 2k180} \right) + i\sin \left( { - 55 + 2k180} \right),\quad k \in \mathbb{Z}\]
