Enter vector A

Given the 2 vectors A and B you entered
calculate the angle θ between them:

Calculate pieces of the angle formula

cos(θ) =	A · B
	\|\|A\|\| * \|\|B\|\|

Determine the vector dot product A · B:

Rewrite our vectors in terms of coordinates:

(a1) = ()
(b1) = ()

Multiply the respective vector components:

A · B = a1b1
A · B = ·
A · B = 0
A · B = 0

Calculate the length (magnitude) of A

Rewrite the vector in terms of coordinates:

(a1) = ()

The formula for this is below:

||A|| = Square Root(a12)
||A|| = Square Root(2)
||A|| = √0
||A|| = √0
||A|| = 0

Calculate the length (magnitude) of B

Rewrite the vector in terms of coordinates:

(b1) = ()

The formula for this is below:

||B|| = Square Root(b12)
||B|| = Square Root(2)
||B|| = √0
||B|| = √0
||B|| = 0

Plugging in our values to the angle formula, we get:

cos(θ) =	0
	(0)(0)

cos(θ) =	0
	0

cos(θ) = NAN

θradians = NAN

Convert our angle to degrees from radians

Angle in Degrees =	Angle in Radians * 180
	π

θdegrees =	NAN * 180
	π

θdegrees =	NAN
	π

θdegrees = NAN°

What is the Answer?

θdegrees = NAN°

How does the Vectors Calculator work?

Free Vectors Calculator - Given 2 vectors A and B, this calculates:
* Length (magnitude) of A = ||A||
* Length (magnitude) of B = ||B||
* Sum of A and B = A + B (addition)
* Difference of A and B = A - B (subtraction)
* Dot Product of vectors A and B = A x B
A ÷ B (division)
* Distance between A and B = AB
* Angle between A and B = θ
* Unit Vector U of A.
* Determines the relationship between A and B to see if they are orthogonal (perpendicular), same direction, or parallel (includes parallel planes).
* Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality
* The orthogonal projection of A on to B, projBA and and the vector component of A orthogonal to B → A - projBA
Also calculates the horizontal component and vertical component of a 2-D vector.
This calculator has 1 input.
