Detailed Solution

In Biot-Savart's law, magnetic field B || idl×r and idl  due to flow of electron is in opposite direction of v and by direction of cross product of two vectors, B.
dB=Idlsinθr2 or dB=I×dlr2
According to Biot-Savart law, if magnetic field is not perpendicular to the motion of charge, then it will not move in helical path, which is not possible for motion of a charge in magnetic field. So, the magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of flow of charge.
