Find rightarrow A middot rightarrow B and the angle between
Find rightarrow A middot rightarrow B and the angle between rightarrow A and rightarrow B where rightarrow A = (5, -3) and rightarrow B = (2, 7)
Solution
Vector A= (5,-3) and Vector B= (2,7)
Vector A . Vector B= I A I I B I cos theta
Vector A . Vector B= 5*(2) + (-3)(7)=-11
I A I= sqrt(52+ (-3)2) = sqrt(34)
I B I = sqrt(22 + 72) = sqrt 53
-11= sqrt34 * sqrt 53 cos theta
cos theta=-11/(sqrt(34*53))
theta=cos-1(-11/sqrt(34*53)) = 105degree
