If, the resultant of two forces (A + B) and (A - B) is A2+B2, then the angle between these forces is 

a
cos-1-A2-B2A2+B2
b
cos-1-A2+B2A2-B2
c
cos-1-A2+B22A2-B2
d
cos-1-2A2+B2A2-B2

detailed solution

Correct option is D

Here, P=(A+B) Q=(A-B)and R=A2+B2 ⇒  cosθ=R2-P2-Q22PQ =A2+B2-(A+B)2-(A-B)22(A+B)(A-B)=-A2+B22A2-B2 θ=cos-1-A2+B22A2-B2
