Question
If $|\vec{\text{a}}|=\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|,$ then $\big(\vec{\text{a}}+\vec{\text{b}}\big).\big(\vec{\text{a}}-\vec{\text{b}}\big)=$
  1. Positive
  2. Negetive
  3. 0
  4. None of these

Answer

  1. 0
Solution:
Given that
$|\vec{\text{a}}|=|\vec{\text{a}}|$
$\Rightarrow\big(\vec{\text{a}}+\vec{\text{b}}\big).\big(\vec{\text{a}}-\vec{\text{b}}\big)=|\vec{\text{a}}|^2-\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2$
$|\vec{\text{a}}^2-|\vec{\text{a}}|^2$
$=0$
