To determine when the vector \( \vec{a} + \vec{b} \) is a unit vector, we start by using the properties of vectors and the dot product. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: We have two unit vectors \( \vec{a} \) and \( \vec{b} \) with an angle \( \alpha \) between them. We need to find when \( \vec{a} + \vec{b} \) is also a unit vector. 2. **Magnitude of the Sum of Vectors**: ...
