Take the dot product, if the dot product is zero, they are orthogonal
<span>the dot product here is 15(-5) + 45(12) so the vectors are not orthogonal </span>
<span>to see if they are parallel, take the dot product again, using the definition </span>
<span>u dot v = mag u x mag v cos (theta) where mag is the magnitude of the vector and theta is the angle between them </span>
<span>we know from above that u dot v = 465 </span>
<span>mag u = sqrt[15^2+45^2]=47.43 </span>
<span>mag v = sqrt[5^2+12^2]=13 </span>
<span>so we know: </span>
<span>cos(theta) = 465/(47.43x13) = 0.75 </span>
<span>
so theta = 41 deg</span>
A type Ia supernova is a type of supernova that occurs in binary systems (two stars orbiting one another) in which one of the stars is a white dwarf. The other star can be anything from a giant star to an even smaller white dwarf<span>.
I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
</span>
The answer would end up being 68.
