Consider the experimental setup for Young's Double Slit Experiment:

enter image description here

Here there is an angle between the directions of propagation of waves ,i.e., $\angle S_1PS_2$ - the angle between the electric and magnetic field vectors at that point other than the phase difference.

My question is:

Why is this angle never taken into account while analysing this experiment or the diffraction experiments?
