Consider the vectors u=-6i and v=-6j. Find the angle between the vectors, and compute the dot product using the definition u x v = |u| |v| cos θ.
Added by A S.
Step 1
The magnitude of a vector is given by the formula |u| = sqrt(u1^2 + u2^2), where u1 and u2 are the components of the vector. For vector u, we have only one component, -6i. So, |u| = sqrt((-6)^2) = 6. Similarly, for vector v, we have only one component, -6j. Show more…
