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

  • A
    $\cos^{-1}\left(\frac{n^{2}+1}{-n^{2}-1}\right)$
  • B
    $\cos^{-1}\left(\frac{n^{2}-1}{-n^{2}-1}\right)$
  • C
    $\cos^{-1}\left(\frac{-n^{2}-1}{n^{2}-1}\right)$
  • D
    $\cos^{-1}\left(\frac{n^{2}+1}{n^{2}-1}\right)$
