While playing baseball, sofia takes note of the extreme vectors for which she bats. what is the angle between her two extreme bats? extreme 1: <-8, 12> extreme: 2: <13, 15>

Respuesta :

The angle between the two extreme vectors of Sofia bats is 74.60 degrees.

In this question,

The angle between two vectors will be deferred by a single point, which is called as the shortest angle at which we have to turn around one of the vectors to the position of co-directional with another vector.

The extreme vectors of Sofia bats are  [tex]\vec u = < -8, 12 >[/tex] and [tex]\vec v = < -8, 12 >[/tex]

The angle between the vectors is

[tex]\theta = cos^{-1} \frac{\vec u.\vec v}{||\vec u|| ||\vec v||}[/tex]

The dot product is calculated as

[tex]\vec u. \vec v = (-8)(13)+(12)(15)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]-104+180[/tex]

⇒ 76

The magnitude can be calculated as

[tex]||\vec u|| = \sqrt{(-8 )^{2} +(12)^{2} }[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\sqrt{64+144}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\sqrt{208}[/tex]

[tex]||\vec v|| = \sqrt{(13 )^{2} +(15)^{2} }[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\sqrt{169+225}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\sqrt{394}[/tex]

Thus the angle between the vectors is

[tex]\theta = cos^{-1} \frac{76}{(\sqrt{208} )(\sqrt{394} )}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\theta = cos^{-1} \frac{76}{\sqrt{81952} }[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\theta = cos^{-1} \frac{76}{286.27 }[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\theta = cos^{-1} (0.2654)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\theta=74.60[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the angle between the two extreme vectors of Sofia bats is 74.60 degrees.
