If both the forces interchange their position as well as directions with each other, there would be no change in resultant. As the measure of angle would be same ie ` theta,` the resultant would be unchanged/ same ie.[P^2+Q^2+2PQcos(theta)]^1/2

The angle of inclination between the Vectors P and Q is Theta. If vectors P and Q are interchanged in position, the resultant turns through an angle. Find that angle in terms of tan.
