Due to current through side AB Magnetic field at the centre O
B1 =

µ0I

4πa

[sinθ1+sinθ2]

As the magnetic field due to each of the 24. For a dipole at position (R, Q) three sides is the same in magnitude and direction.
∴ Total magnetic field at O is sum of all the fields.
i.e. B = 3B1 =

3µ0I

4πa

[sinθ1+sinθ2]
Here, tan θ1 =
