A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Solution
The angle θ between two vectors A and B can be found using the dot product formula:
A.B = |A||B|cos(θ)
Where:
- A.B is the dot product of A and B
- |A| and |B| are the magnitudes of A and B
- θ is the angle between A and B
First, let's find the dot product of A and B:
A.B = (66) + (88) + (10*-10) = 36 + 64 - 100 = 0
Next, let's find the magnitudes of A and B:
|A| = sqrt((6^2) + (8^2) + (10^2)) = sqrt(36 + 64 + 100) = sqrt(200)
|B| = sqrt((6^2) + (8^2) + (-10^2)) = sqrt(36 + 64 + 100) = sqrt(200)
Now, we can find the angle θ:
0 = sqrt(200)*sqrt(200)*cos(θ)
0 = 200cos(θ)
cos(θ) = 0/200 = 0
Therefore, θ = cos^-1(0) = 90°
So, the answer is E. θ = 90°.
