If a line makes an angle of 3 with each X and Y axis, then the acute angle made by Z -axis is
Options
- A3
- B2
- C4
- D6
Correct answer
C. 4
Step-by-step solution
Given, = = 3 Let acute angle made by Z -axis be . We know that aligned & ^2 + ^2 + ^2 =1 & ( 1 2 )^2+ ( 1 2 )^2+ ^2 =1 & 1 4 + 1 4 + ^2 =1 & ^2 =1- 1 2 = 1 2 & = 4 aligned [ y is acute]
