Dear student,

Torque acting on a magnet of magentic moment\vec{M}kept in an external magnetic field\vec{B}is
\vec{\tau}=\vec{M}\times \vec{B}=MBsin\theta

Thus the work done in moving a magnet by90^{\circ}in direction of magnetic field is
W=\int_{90^{\circ}}^{0^{\circ}}MBsin\theta d\theta=MB(cos90^{\circ}-cos0^{\circ}) =-MB

Work done is given by
W = MB(cos0 – cos90) = MB.
Hope it clears.
