Two beams, and , of plane polarized light with mutually perpendicular planes of polarization are seen through a polaroid. From the position when the beam has maximum intensity (and beam has zero intensity), a rotation of polaroid through makes the two beams appear equally bright. If the initial intensities of the two beams are and respectively, then equals:
- A
- B
- C
- D
