The resultant of
and
makes an angle α with
and β with ![]()

Let us consider
and
along two sides of the parallelogram and the resultant vector
along the diagonal of parallelogram. Now if we take the component of
along
we have B
and component of
perpendicular to
we get A
as illustrated above.
Now consider
OAX,
∴ AX =OA
=|A|![]()
Now consider
AXR,
,∴ XR=OB
=|B|![]()
In
AXR, if we apply the Pythagoras theorem, we get
,∴
, |A|
=|B|![]()
Thus, we have
, now if
,
,{![]()
,∴
, implies |A|>|B| for
.
Hence option C satisfies our condition best.
