If `|veca|=2, |vecb|=5 and |vecaxxvecb|=8` then find the value of `veca.vecb`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`veca.vecb= |veca||vecb|costheta,but |vecaxxvecb|=|veca||vecb|sintheta`
` or sin theta (|veca xx vecb|)/(|veca||vecb|)= 4/5 Rightarrow 4/5 Rightarrow theta= 3/5`
thereforem , `veca.vecb= 2xx5xx 3/5 = 6`
