The angle between vector A and vector B is θθas shown above.

The resultant is shown in red. Using the cosine rule:

R2=A2+B2−2AB(cosβ)R2=A2+B2−2AB(cosβ)

But the magnitude of each vector is the same, therefore

A2=A2+A2−2(A)(A)(cosβ)A2=A2+A2−2(A)(A)(cosβ)

cosβ=−A2−2(A2)cosβ=−A2−2(A2)

β=60∘β=60∘

θ=180∘−60∘=120∘

ANSWER : 120°

EXPLANATION : The angle between vector A and vector B is θθas shown above.

The resultant is shown in red. Using the cosine rule:

R2=A2+B2−2AB(cosβ)R2=A2+B2−2AB(cosβ)

But the magnitude of each vector is the same, therefore

A2=A2+A2−2(A)(A)(cosβ)A2=A2+A2−2(A)(A)(cosβ)

cosβ=−A2−2(A2)cosβ=−A2−2(A2)

β=60∘β=60∘

θ=180∘−60∘=120∘
