# 3. Let the angle between two nonzero vectors A and B be 120° and its resultant be C.   (a) C must be equal to |A-B|   (b) C must be less than |A-B|   (c) C must be greater than |A-B|   (d) C may be equal to |A-B|

you can try formula, which is-
R^2= P^2 +Q^2 +2PQ cos$\theta$            where R is Resultant

But if we see that  |A−B| will happen if both the vectors are in opposite direction that means angle is 180 degree.
but here in question is 120 degree hence it will surely be greater than |A-B|.

if c is thehave resultant of A and B,then . C sqrt=A^2+B^2-AB. [cos120=-1\2] similarly, -C=|A-B|=sqrt,A^2+B^2-2ABcos120 =sqrt A^2+B^2+AB so,|A-B|>c

Just go with this formula :

R^2= P^2 +Q^2 +2PQ cos$\theta$            where R is Resultant

But if we see that  |A−B| will happen if both the vectors are in the opposite direction that means angle is 180 degree.
but here in question is 120 degree hence it will surely be greater than |A-B|.
