    When both the two components of electric field have same amplitude and their phase difference is π/2 then the electric field will be circularly polarized. So here E will be circularly polarized if Eoy = Eoz and phase difference [(wt-kx+B)-(wt-kx+A)]=+or-π/2 i.e, B-A=+or-π/2 Thus the answer is option B.
