Answer:
Let angle between A and B = x
A×B = A B sinx
15 = 5× 6 sinx
sinx = 15/30
sin x = 1/2
therefore x = 30°

Given:
The magnitude of vector a = 5 unit
The magnitude of vector B = 6 unit
The magnitude of the cross product of A and B = 15
To find:
The angle between A and B.
Solution:
We know that the formula for the cross product can be written as:
A×B = |A| |B| sinα
Where α is the angle between vectors A and B.
On substituting the values in the equation, we get:
15 = 5×6 sinα
On further simplifying, we get:
15 = 30 sinα
On further simplifying, we get:
sin α = 1/2
From this equation, we can conclude that:
α = 30°
Thus, the angle between vectors A and B will be 30°.
