Determine whether the vectors u and v are parallel, orthogonal, or neither. u = <6, -2>, v = <8, 24> Neither, Parallel, or Orthogonal

Parth (parthkohli):

Hint: use the dot-product.

Parth (parthkohli):

If two vectors have their dot product = 0, then they are orthogonal.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do you know if they are equal to zero?

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):

The dot product of (a,b) and (c,d) is ac+bd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay let me try it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it equals 0 which means its orthogonal?

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Aw thanks(:
