Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
v= 7i +3j, w = -18i +2j
angle = about 106.86 degrees which is neither orthogonal or parallel
angle = tan^-1(3/7) + 90- tan^-1(-2/18) = about 90-23.2 + 83.66=66.8+83.66
= 151.46
the more traditional method:
cosT = vw/|v||w| =dot product divided by product of magnitudes
= (3x2 -18x7)/|v||w| = (6-126)/sqr58sqr328) = -120)/sqr58x373= -120/147.09= -0.815
T= cos^-1(-.815) =180-35.33
= 144.67 degrees
145 or 151?
both look visually about right from a graph of the vectors
they're also somewhat "close" but there' an arithmetic error
or two somewhere
