let vector a make ¢ angle with x , y ,z axes .

according to direction cosine ,

cos^2¢ +cos^2¢ +cos^2¢ =1

3cos^2¢ =1

take square root both side 

√3cos¢ = +_ 1

so, ¢ =cos^-1(+_1/√3) = cos^-(1/√3)

now , 

x -component = cos^-1(1/√3)

y -component =cos^-1(1/√3)

z -component =cos^-1(1/√3)


vibhavasiddi28: which option is correct?
luk3004: Option A is correct
luk3004: Please mark as brainliest
vibhavasiddi28: how option a
vibhavasiddi28: how??????
vibhavasiddi28: i will mark as brainliest please tell
luk3004: I will show another step
vibhavasiddi28: ok

we know that vector in three dimensions makes an angle

i.e. cos^2x+cos^2y+cos^2z = 1

as, x=y=z

cos^2x = 1/3

cos x=1/√3

So, Value

of its components (in terms of magnitude of A) will be A/√3

Hope it helps
