The magnitude of the vectors is given by
R = √(A2+B2+2ABcosθ)
Now, X = √(X2+X2+2X2cosθ)
X2 = 2X2 + 2X2cosθ
2X2cosθ = X2 - 2X2
2X2cosθ = -X2
2cosθ = -1
cosθ = -1/2
θ = cos⁻1(-1/2)
θ = 120°
Therefore, the angle between the vectors is 120°
Summary:
If the magnitude of the resultant of two vectors of equal magnitudes is equal to the magnitude of either vector, then the angle between the two vectors is
125°
130°
110°
120°
If the magnitude of the resultant of two vectors of equal magnitudes is equal to the magnitude of either vector, then the angle between the two vectors is 120°.
