If `veca` and `vecb` are two unit vectors such that `veca+2vecb` and `5veca-4vecb` are perpendicular to each other, then the angle between `veca` and `vecb` is

A

`(pi)/(4)`

B

`(pi)/(3)`

C

`cos ^(-1)((1)/(3))`

D

`cos ^(-1)((2)/(7))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`" "(veca + 2vecb).(5veca- 4 vecb)=0 `
`5veca . veca- 8 vecb. vecb + 10 vecb. veca-4veca. vecb=0`
`" "5-8 + 10 cos theta - 4 cos theta = 0`
`" " 6 cos theta = 3`
`" "theta = (pi)/(3)`
