Solution

The correct option is C $1$
$(\to A + \to B)$ is perpendicular to $(\to A - \to b 0)$ . Thus
$(\to A + \to B) . (\to A - \to B) = 0$
or $A^{2} + \to B . \to A - \to A . \to B - B^{2} = 0$
Because of commutative property of dot product $\to A . \to B = \to B . \to A$
$∴ A^{2} - B^{2} = 0$ or $A = B$
Thus the ratio of magnitude $A / B = 1$
