If we have two forces P and Q, resultant force is R and angle is θ
Then R2 = P2 + R2 + 2PQ cos θ
Given, two vectors 2f and f√2 and the resultant force is f√10
=> (f√10)2 = (2f)2 + (f√2)2 + 2 * 2f * f√2 cos θ
=> 10f2 = 4f2 + 2f2 + 4√2f2 * cos θ
=> 10f2 = 6f2 + 4√2f2 * cos θ
=> 10 = 6 + 4√2 * cos θ
=> 10 - 6 = 4√2 * cos θ
=> 4 = 4√2 * cos θ
=> cos θ = 4/4√2
=> cos θ = 1/√2
=> cos θ = cos 45°
=> θ = 45°
So, the angle is 45°
