The resultant of two equal vectors will be equal to either of the vectors themselves when the angle between the two vectors is 120 degrees. Explanation:
Consider two vectors A⃗\vec{A}A and B⃗\vec{B}B with equal magnitude ppp. The magnitude of their resultant vector R⃗\vec{R}R is given by the formula:

R=A2+B2+2ABcos⁡θR=\sqrt{A^2+B^2+2AB\cos \theta}R=A2+B2+2ABcosθ​

Since A=B=pA=B=pA=B=p, substitute:

R=p2+p2+2p2cos⁡θ=2p2+2p2cos⁡θR=\sqrt{p^2+p^2+2p^2\cos \theta}=\sqrt{2p^2+2p^2\cos \theta}R=p2+p2+2p2cosθ​=2p2+2p2cosθ​

For the resultant to be equal to either vector's magnitude ppp:

p=2p2+2p2cos⁡θp=\sqrt{2p^2+2p^2\cos \theta}p=2p2+2p2cosθ​

Squaring both sides and simplifying:

p2=2p2+2p2cos⁡θ ⟹ 1=2+2cos⁡θ ⟹ 2cos⁡θ=−1 ⟹ cos⁡θ=−12p^2=2p^2+2p^2\cos \theta \implies 1=2+2\cos \theta \implies 2\cos \theta =-1\implies \cos \theta =-\frac{1}{2}p2=2p2+2p2cosθ⟹1=2+2cosθ⟹2cosθ=−1⟹cosθ=−21​

This corresponds to:

θ=120∘\theta =120^\circ θ=120∘

Therefore, the resultant of two vectors of equal magnitude is equal in magnitude to either of the vectors only when the angle between them is 120 degrees.
