Exercise 1

Avg difficulty 2.5

Consider the vectors v=[203−2],w=[1−341].\vvec=\fourvec203{-2}, \hspace{24pt} \wvec=\fourvec1{-3}41.

  1. Find the lengths of the vectors, ∣v∣\len{\vvec} and ∣w∣\len{\wvec}.

  2. Find the dot product v⋅w\vvec\cdot\wvec and use it to find the angle θ\theta between v\vvec and w\wvec.
