The correct answer is: $(A)$ is true but $(R)$ is false
We have, $\arg \left(\bar{z}_1\right)=\frac{\pi}{5}, \arg \left(z_2\right)=\frac{\pi}{3}$
$\therefore \quad \arg \left(z_1 z_2\right)=\arg \left(z_2\right)-\arg \left(\bar{z}_1\right)=\frac{\pi}{3}-\frac{\pi}{5}=\frac{2 \pi}{15}$
Also, $\arg (\bar{z})=-\arg (z)$.
(A) is ture but (R) is false.
