Find the angle between them.

Question:

Let $\vec{a}=2 \vec{\imath}+3 \vec{\jmath}+4 \vec{k}$ and $\vec{b}=3 \vec{\imath}+4 \vec{\jmath}+5 \vec{k}$.

Find the angle between them.

Solution:

$a=2 i+3 j+4 k$ and $b=3 i+4 j+5 k$

Let angle between them is $\theta$

Then a.b $=2.3+3.4+4.5=38$

$|a|=\sqrt{\left(2^{2}+3^{2}+4^{2}\right)=\sqrt{29}}$

$|a|=\sqrt{\left(2^{2}+3^{2}+4^{2}\right)=\sqrt{29}}$

Now $\cos \theta=a \cdot b /|a||b|=38 / \sqrt{1450}$
