Vectors and Dot Products

Topic Review on "Title":

The Magnitude of a vector:
Let be a vector then .

The dot product of vectors:

  • Let and be two vectors then the dot product of V and U is equal to:
  • .

Norm of a vector and the cosine of a central angle:

For a central angle we can rewrite the norm of a vector as relation with the product of the norms of vectors U and V and the product of vectors U and V, namely
