Given two vectors \vec a \: \: and \: \: \vec b

\left | \vec a \right |=\left | \vec b\right |

\vec a.\vec b=\frac{1}{2}

Now Angle between \vec a \: \: and \: \: \vec b

\theta=60^0

Now As we know that

\vec a.\vec b=\left | \vec a \right |\left | \vec b \right |cos\theta

\frac{1}{2}=\left | \vec a \right |\left | \vec a \right |cos60^0

\left | a \right |^2=1

Hence, the magnitude of two vectors \vec a \: \: and \: \: \vec b

\left | a \right |=\left | b \right |=1
