Q.
For a triangle ABC, let and . If and , where is the angle between and , then is equal to:
- A
340
- B
220
- C
410
- D
200
Solution

The vectors close the triangle: , so .
Find via the cosine rule (the angle at C between and enters as the angle between them when both originate from a common point; using the given directly): .
Simplify the cross product using : . Then (since ).
, so .
Total: .
