If a → = 3 2 k ^ ,   b → = 2 i ^ + 2 j ^ - k ^ 2 , then angle between a → + b →…

If a=32k^, b=2i^+2j^-k^2, then angle between a+b and a-b is
  1. 45
  2. 90
  3. 30
  4. 60

Solution

Given that, a=32k^, b=2i^+2j^-k^2

a+b=i^+j^+k^ and a-b=-i^-j^+2k^

a+b=3 and a-b=6

Let the angle between them is θ, then cosθ=a+b·a-ba+b·a-b

cosθ=-1-1+23·6

cosθ=0

θ=90°
