Since a is perpendicular to b, their dot product is zero:
a⋅b=0
Given:
a=(sinθ)i^+(cosθ)j^
b=i^−3j^
Taking the dot product:
(sinθ)(1)+(cosθ)(−3)=0
sinθ−3cosθ=0
sinθ=3cosθ
tanθ=3
Since θ is an acute angle:
θ=3π
CUET UG 2025 — Mathematics Algebra
If θ is an acute angle and the vector a=(sinθ)i+(cosθ)j is perpendicular to the vector b=i−3j then θ is equal to
