Given $|\mathrm{A}|=2$ and $|\mathrm{B}|=4$

$(a)$ $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{A}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}=\mathrm{AB} \cos \theta=0$

$\therefore \quad 2 \times 4 \cos \theta=0$

$\therefore \quad \cos \theta=0=\cos 90^{\circ}$

$\therefore \quad \theta=90^{\circ}$

$\therefore$ Option $(a)$ matches with option $(ii)$.

$(b)$ $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{A}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}=\mathrm{AB} \cos \theta=8$

$\therefore 2 \times 4 \cos \theta=8$

$\therefore \quad \cos \theta=1=\cos 0^{\circ}$

$\therefore \quad \theta=0^{\circ}$

$\therefore$ Option $(b)$ matches with option $(i)$.

$(c)$ $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{A}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}=\mathrm{AB} \cos \theta=4$

$\therefore \quad 2 \times 4 \cos \theta=4$ $\therefore \quad \cos \theta=\frac{1}{2}=\cos 60^{\circ}$ $\therefore \quad \theta=60^{\circ}$

$\therefore$ Option $(c)$ matches with option $(iv)$.

$(d)$ $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{A}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}=\mathrm{AB} \cos \theta=-8$

$\therefore \quad 2 \times 4 \cos \theta=-8$

$\therefore \quad \cos \theta=-1=\cos 180^{\circ}$

$\therefore \quad \cos \theta=180^{\circ}$

Option $(d)$ matches with option $(iii)$.
