Answer is A. Because if we think with the help of graph then we find that a start from 45 and after 15 means at 60 b will start then it is clear that a is lead with 15.

Option b is the correct answer.

Option A is right. Because it crosses zero at the angle of 45 degrees. But B is cross after 60 degrees.

I can't understand it. Please help me.

I think wave B leads. Please give clarification about the answer.

As per my knowledge B is right.

Option A is right because A reaches to 0 before B at 15 degrees.

B is the correct option.

Answer should be B because lagging and leading does not depend on Cross zero first. It depends upon the angle of the wave. So right answer should be B.

Hi all.
Option B is correct. Here is the explanation:
That signal leads which crosses a point before the other signal.
δ _t=∠/360*f.
Where Δ_t=tB-tA.
And ∠ is phase difference given by:
∠=∠B-∠A.
And it should be cleared here if Δ t is +ve then signal A is lagging and Vice versa
In our problem.
∠=60-45=15=+ve so Δ t is also +ve and hence wave A is lagging wave B by 15 degrees.
I hope this helped you.
Thanks
