The quotient is defined only when . Its unit-modulus condition then gives . On expanding with complex conjugates,Hence at least one imaginary part is zero, and either or is real. Conversely, either reality condition makes the two squared moduli equal; provided the denominator is nonzero, the quotient has modulus one. No conclusion is drawn from an undefined quotient.
