- Hi Tim, thanks for your answer. My point was that in calculating an angle one would use equation cosA=|a b / (|a| |b|) |. In this case the other soution (a=0) would also hold. And in this case we would obtain vector (1,0,-1) whose angle...
- Hi Barbara, Thanks for your comment about Q.3, part (d) on Test1 HL Vectors. Not sure I'm interpreting your comment corectly. There actually is no angle calculation because it is given that the angle between the plane and line L3 is 30 degrees;...
