If \(\scriptstyle{\vec{\mathbf{a}}}\,\mathbf{and}\,{\vec{\mathbf{b}}}\) are two unit vectors such that \(\vec{a}+2 \vec{b} \text { and } 5 \vec{a}-4 \vec{b}\) are perpendicular to each other then the angle between \(\scriptstyle{\vec{\mathbf{a}}}\,\mathbf{and}\,{\vec{\mathbf{b}}}\) is : 
  1. 45°
  2. 60°
  3. \(\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)\)
  4. \(\cos -1\left(\frac{2}{7}\right)\)

Answer

(B) 60 °
