Introduction to Vectors Part 2 Saadiq Shaik September 2016 1 The Dot Product There are two important vector products we will deal with. The ▯rst is called the dot product, which is a scalar, and the dot product of two vectors a and b is given by a ▯ b =1 1b + 2 2 + 3 3 Example 1 Find the dot product of a = (1,0,4) and b = (2,1,1). Solution Through substitution we arrive at a ▯ b = (1)(2) + (0)(1) + (4)(1) = 6 The dot product can also be expressed in terms of the product of the mag- nitudes of the vectors involved and the cosine of the angle between them. ▯ must be between 0 and ▯. a ▯ b = jjajjjjbjjcos▯ Example 2 Find the cosine of the an
