Solution

The correct option is D none of these
We have ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯BD=¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯OD¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯OB=a2bb=a3b and ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AC=¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯OC¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯OA=2a+3ba=a+3b.
Let θ be the angle between ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯BD and ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AC.
Then cosθ=¯¯¯¯¯¯¯BD.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AC|¯¯¯¯¯¯¯BD||¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AC|=|a|29|b|2|¯¯¯¯¯¯¯BD||¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AC|9|b|29|b|2|¯¯¯¯¯¯¯BD||¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AC|,(|a|=3|b|)cosθ=0θ=π2.
