MCQ
The angle made by the vector $A = \hat i + \hat j$ with $x-$ axis is ....... $^o$
  • A
    $90$
  • $45$
  • C
    $22.5$
  • D
    $30$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$45$
b
(b) $\vec A = \hat i + \hat j$ 

$⇒$ $|A| = \sqrt {{1^2} + {1^2}} = \sqrt 2 $

$\cos \alpha = \frac{{{A_x}}}{{|A|}} = \frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }} = \cos 45^\circ $ 
$⇒$ $\alpha = 45^\circ $
