If the component of vector A along the direction of vector B is zero, what can you conclude about these two vectors?

Good question. What do you think? I (we ...) would be happy to explain why your reasoning is correct or incorrect if you take a stab at it.

The angle between the vectors is 45Â°.
The vectors have unequal magnitudes and are opposite in direction.
The vectors are perpendicular.
The vectors have the same direction.

these are the possible answers.
im thinking that the vectors are perpendicular by I am not entirely sure
