The vectors`vecA` and `vecB` uur are such that |`vecA + vecB`| =|`vecA-vecB `|The angle between the two vectors is

A

`90^(@)`

B

`60^(@)`

C

`75^(@)`

D

`45^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
1

`|vecA+ vecB|^(2) = |vecA- vecB|^(2)`
`rArr A^(2) + B^(2) + 2AB cos theta = A^(2) + B^(2) - 2AB cos theta `
`rArr cos theta = 0 rArr theta = 90^(@)`
