Problem

Let 0<α<π20 < \alpha < \frac{\pi}{2} be a fixed angle. If P=(cos⁡θ,sin⁡θ)P = (\cos \theta, \sin \theta) and Q=(cos⁡(α−θ),sin⁡(α−θ))Q = (\cos(\alpha - \theta), \sin(\alpha - \theta)) , then Q is obtained from P by a. clockwise rotation around origin through an angle α\alpha b. anti-clockwise rotation around origin through an angle α\alpha c. reflection in the line through origin with slope tan⁡α\tan \alpha d. reflection in the line through origin with slope tan⁡(α2)\tan\left(\frac{\alpha}{2}\right)
