The answer is 1✓3
Means option b) ✓3 because let have a example:-
Question:- The x and y components of a vector are 4√3m and 4m respectively. What angle does the vector make with a positive x axis?
Answer:-
x component = 4√3 î
y component = 4 j
So the vector = 4√3 î + 4 j
Magnitude = √((4√3)^2 + 4^2) = 8
And x-axis = 1 î
Therefore dot product = (4√3 î + 4 j)•(1 î + 0 j)
= (4√3)
And dot product is =
magnitude × cos (angle between vectors)
Therefore 4√3 =8 × cos (angle)
which implies cos (angle) = √3/2
Angle = 30° or 330° but since vector lies in 1st quadrant angle is 30°.
By this example hope you understand Mark as brainliest please
