If `veca=2veci+3vecj-4veck and vecb =5veci+2vecj+4veck`, find the angle between `veca and vecb`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
(a) 5 (b) 5 (c) `7sqrt(2)` (d)2

`veca=4veci+vecj, vecb=3veci+4vecj`
(a). `|vecalpha|=sqrt(9+16)=5`
(b).`|vecb|=|3veci+4vech|=sqrt(9+16)=5`
(c).`|veca-vecb|=|7veci+7vecj|=sqrt(49+49)`
`sqrt(98)=7sqrt(2)`
(d). `veca-vecb=(4veci+3vecj)-(3veci+4vecj)`=`veci-vecj, rarr |veca-vecb|=sqrt((1)^2+(-1)^2)=2`
