Question

19, find the direction angle of vector v to the nearest tenth of a degree

Answer 1

The vector v is given by:
 v = (7, 2) - (-5, 0)
 v = ((7 - (- 5)), (2-0))
 v = ((7 + 5), 2)
 v = (12, 2)
 Then, the angle is given by:
 tan (theta) = 2/12
 theta = atan (2/12)
 theta = 9.46 degrees
 Answer:
 The direction angle of vector to the nearest tenth of a degree is:
 theta = 9.5 degrees
