The resultant of two vector A and B is at right angles to A and its magnitude is half of B. Find the angle between A and B.

A

`120^(@)`

B

`150^(@)`

C

`135^(@)`

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B


`Delta OQR " " cos alpha =(B//2)/(B)=(1)/(2) rArr " " alpha =60^(@)`
` " Hence" " " "Angle" =90+60=150^(@)`
