The components of vector B are Bx = -3.5 and By = -4.7, and the components of vector C are Cx = -6 and Cy = +8.1. What is the angle (less than 180 degrees) between vectors B and C ?
Added by Theresa M.
Step 1
Given vectors B and C: B = (-3.5, -4.7) C = (-6, 8.1) The dot product of vectors B and C is given by: B . C = (-3.5)(-6) + (-4.7)(8.1) B . C = 21 + (-38.07) B . C = -17.07 Show more…
