$1-2=$ Let $\mathbf{u}=\left\langle a_{1}, a_{2}\right\rangle$ and $\mathbf{v}=\left\langle b_{1}, b_{2}\right\rangle$ be nonzero vectors in the plane, and let $\theta$ be the angle between them. The dot product of $\mathbf{u}$ and $\mathbf{v}$ is defined by $\mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{v}=$ _____________________ The dot product of two vectors is a _____________, not a vector.
