let the vectors as a,b were a=b then R is resultant then R=√2a²+2a²cosФ or R=√2a²(1+cosФ).

rishabrahiman: i required the next step of it.............the ans in the book was 2Acos theta/2........i didnt understand how????
vasanthkumar: cos(?) in book.....
vasanthkumar: yeh.. let (1+cosФ)=2cos²(Ф/2) then solve u will get.....
rishabrahiman: thanks
