If the length of a⃗ a→ , b⃗ b→ and a⃗ +b⃗ a→+b→ are the same, we must have:
|a⃗ +b⃗ |2=|a⃗ |2|a→+b→|2=|a→|2
This means:
(a⃗ +b⃗ )⋅(a⃗ +b⃗ )=|a⃗ |2⇔|a⃗ |2+|b⃗ |2+2a⃗ ⋅b⃗ =(a→+b→)⋅(a→+b→)=|a→|2⇔|a→|2+|b→|2+2a→⋅b→= |a⃗ |2|a→|2
Since |a⃗ |2|a→|2 and |b⃗ |2|b→|2 are equal, this reduces to:
|a⃗ |2+2a⃗ ⋅b⃗ =0|a→|2+2a→⋅b→=0
|a⃗ |2+2|a⃗ |2cosθ=0⇔|a⃗ |2(1+2cosθ)=0|a→|2+2|a→|2cosθ=0⇔|a→|2(1+2cosθ)=0
Isolating, we get:
cosθ=−12cosθ=−12
θθ being equal to 120 degrees.
