JEE Main 25 July 2021, Shift 2, Physics Q5

Question 5 of 90 in this shift, Physics question 5 of 30, Section A.

Two vectors X⃗\vec{X} and Y⃗\vec{Y} have equal magnitude. The magnitude of (X⃗−Y⃗)(\vec{X} - \vec{Y}) is n times the magnitude of (X⃗+Y⃗)(\vec{X} + \vec{Y}). The angle between X⃗\vec{X} and Y⃗\vec{Y} is :
