Math Problem Statement
what is the angle between A and B
Solution
To determine the angle between two vectors and , we use the following formula from vector algebra:
Where:
- is the angle between the two vectors.
- is the dot product of the vectors.
- and are the magnitudes (or lengths) of vectors and , respectively.
To calculate the angle , rearrange the equation:
If you provide the components of vectors and , I can calculate the dot product and magnitudes, then find the angle between them.
