1=rsinθ.cosϕ,2=rsinθsinϕ,3=rcosθ...(i) 12+22+32=r2sin2θcos2ϕ+r2sin2θsin2ϕ+r2cos2θ =r2sin2θ(cos2ϕ+sin2ϕ)+r2cos2θ=r2sin2θ+r2cos2θ=r2 r=±14

 From Eq. (i), we have 

sinθcosϕ=+114,sinθsinϕ=214,cosθ=314

(neglecting –ve sign as acute angles)

 sinθsinϕsinθcosϕ=21 and  tanθ=sinθcosθ=53 tanϕ=2   and   tanθ=53
