A vector P=5 i^−12 j^\mathbf{P}=5\,\mathbf{\hat{i}}-12\,\mathbf{\hat{j}} lies in the xyxy-plane. Which option gives both the unit vector along P\mathbf{P} and the angle (in degrees) that P\mathbf{P} makes with the positive xx-axis? a) 0.923 i^−0.385 j^;  −67.4∘0.923\,\hat{\mathbf{i}}-0.385\,\hat{\mathbf{j}};\;-67.4^{\circ} b) 0.385 i^−0.923 j^;  −67.4∘0.385\,\hat{\mathbf{i}}-0.923\,\hat{\mathbf{j}};\;-67.4^{\circ} c) 5 i^−12 j^;  22.6∘5\,\hat{\mathbf{i}}-12\,\hat{\mathbf{j}};\;22.6^{\circ} d) 0.385 i^−0.923 j^;  67.4∘0.385\,\hat{\mathbf{i}}-0.923\,\hat{\mathbf{j}};\;67.4^{\circ}
