The angle $\beta$ between vector $\overrightarrow{A}$ and the resultant vector $(\overrightarrow{A}-\overrightarrow{B})$ is given by:

  • A
    $\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{-B/2}{A-B\sqrt{3}/2}\right)$
  • B
    $\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{A}{0.7B}\right)$
  • C
    $\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{B\sin 120^{\circ}}{A+B\cos 120^{\circ}}\right)$
  • D
    $\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{B\cos \theta}{A-B\sin \theta}\right)$
