Correct answer: 1
-
Let the two vectors be and
-
Since the vectors are perpendicular, their dot product must be zero:
-
Compute the dot product:
-
We are also given:
-
Solve the system of equations:
-
Eliminate variables. Multiply (1) by and (2) by :
Adding,
-
Substitute into (2):
-
Therefore, Given that this ratio is , we get
-
Final answer:
The derived answer matches the stored correct answer.
