Question

Determine whether the vectors u and v are parallel, orthogonal, or neither.

u = <6, -2>, v = <2, 6>

Answer 1

Two vectors are orthogonal if their dot product is zero.

To check if parallel/neither, use the dot product formula:
\[u\cdot v=\|u\|~\|v\|~\cos\theta\]
solve for \(\theta\). (\(\|u\|\) is the magnitude of \(u\).)

Answer 2

i got orthogonal

Answer 3

actuallu neither

Answer 4

@SithsAndGiggles

Answer 5

actuallu neither

Answer 6

No, you were right the first time!
\[u\cdot v=(6\times2)+(-2\times6)=12-12=0\]
So they're orthogonal.

Answer 7

thank you!!!
