Solution

The correct options are
B π4
D 3π4
Plane p1 is parallel to a and b the normal to p1 is along a×b
Plane p2 is parallel to c and d the normal to p2 is along c×d
A is along the line of intersection of planes p1 and p2
A is along (a×b)×(c×d)
a×b=^i^j^k023043
=^i(612)^j(00)+^k(0)
=18^i
c×d=∣ ∣ ∣^i^j^k011330∣ ∣ ∣
=^i(0+3)^j(0+3)+^k(03)
=3^i3^j3^k
=3(^i^j^k)
A is along ^i×(^i^j^k)=^j^k
The angle between A and 2^i+^j2^k is θ
cosθ=AA.(2^i+^j2^k)3
=±(^j^k)(2^i+^j2^k)32
=±(1+2)32=±12
and cosθ=±12
θ=π4,3π4
