A cube is placed so that one corner is at the origin and three edges are along the x-,y-, and ,z-axes of a coordinate system (figure).Use vector to compute
a.The angle between the edge along the z-axis (line ab) and the diagonal from the origin to the opposite corner (line ad).
b. The angle between line ac (the diagonal of a face ) and line ad.
