In the above image waveform of current and voltage in puerly inductive circuit with time is shown.
It is clear from the image that current lags voltage by 90o.
Hence phase angle between current and voltage in purely inductive circuit is π/2

2. When an alternating voltage of 220 V is applied across a device P, a current of 0.25 A. flows through the circuit and it leads the applied voltage by an angle π/2 radian. When the same voltage source is connected across another device Q, the same current is observed in the circuit but in phase with the
applied voltage. The current when the same source is connected across a series combination of P and Q is
