The angle between two vectors u
and v
can be calculated using the dot product formula as cos(theta) = (u . v) / (|u| |v|)
, where |u|
and |v|
are the magnitudes of vectors u
and v
.
In Matlab, we can write the code as follows:
main.m131 chars5 lines
Here, u
is the vector (l, 0)
and v
is the vector (1, 1)
. We first calculate the dot product of u
and v
, and then divide it by the product of their magnitudes to get cos(theta)
. Finally, we calculate theta
in degrees using the acosd
function.
So, the angle in degrees between u
and v
is 45
degrees.
