Correct Option - 3
Detailed Solution:
According to question
|x| = |y| and
|x - y| = n|x + y|
x² + y² - 2x·y = n² (x² + y² + 2x·y)
(1 - n²) (x² + y²) = (1 + n²)2x·y
(1 - n²) (x² + y²) = (1 + n²)2xy cosθ
(1 - n²) (2x²) = (1 + n²) (2x²)cosθ
cos θ = (1 - n²)/ (1 + n²)
θ = cos? ¹ (1 - n²)/ (1 + n²) = cos? ¹ (- (n²-1)/ (n²+1)
