Vector A makes equal angles with x, y and z axis. Value of its components (in terms of magnitude of A) will be

a
A3
b
A2
c
3  A
d
3A

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Let the components of A→ makes angles α, β and γ  with x, y and z axis respectively then α = β = γcos2θ+cos2β+cos2γ  =  1⇒ 3 cos2θ =1  ⇒cosα = 13∴  Ax  = Ay  =  Az  =Acosα = A3
