Prove that the angle between two curves C1C_{1} and C2C_{2} passing through the point z0z_{0} in the zz plane [see Figs. 8-1 and 8-2, page 243] is preserved [in magnitude and sense] under the transformation w=f(z)w=f(z), i.e., the mapping is conformal, if f(z)f(z) is analytic at z0z_{0} and f(z0)0f^{\prime}\left(z_{0}\right) \neq 0.

By Problem 8.3, each curve is rotated through the angle argf(z0)\arg f^{\prime}\left(z_{0}\right). Hence, the angle between the curves must be preserved, both in magnitude and sense, in the mapping.
