In a two dimensional motion of a particle, the particle moves from point A, with position vector `vec(r )_(1)` to point B, with position vector `vec(r )_(2)`. If the magnitudes of these vectors are, respectively, `r_(1 )=3` and `r_(2)=4` and the angles they make with the x-axis are `theta_(1)=75^(@)` and `theta_(2)=15^(@)`, respectively, then find the magnitude of the displacement vector.
