Properties of argument of a complex number - (Concept)

i) $\arg \left(z_1 z_2\right)=\arg \left(z_1\right)+\arg \left(z_2\right)+2 k \pi, \quad k$ is an integer

Value of $k$ should be chosen in such a way that arg lies between (-?,?]
This formula for argument can be generalised for n number of complexes in a similar way
ii) $\arg \left(\frac{\mathrm{z}_1}{\mathrm{z}_2}\right)=\arg \left(\mathrm{z}_1\right)-\arg \left(\mathrm{z}_2\right)+2 \mathrm{k} \pi$ where $k$ is an integer
iii) $\arg (\bar{z})=-\arg (z)$
iv) $\arg \left(\mathrm{z}^{\mathrm{n}}\right)=\mathrm{n} \cdot \arg (\mathrm{z})+2 \mathrm{k} \pi$ k belongs to an integer
(v) $\left|z_1+z_2\right|=\left|z_1\right|+\left|z_2\right| \Rightarrow \arg \left(z_1\right)=\arg \left(z_2\right)$
(vi) $\left|z_1+z_2\right|=\left|\left|z_1\right|-\left|z_2\right|\right| \Rightarrow \arg \left(z_1\right)-\arg \left(z_2\right)=\pi$
