Question
Write the angle between two vectors ​​$​​\vec{\text{a}}$ and $​​\vec{\text{b}}$ with magnitudes $\sqrt{3}$ and 2 respectively if $​​\vec{\text{a}}​​.\vec{\text{b}}=\sqrt{6}.$
✓

Answer

Let $\theta$ be the angle between$​​\vec{\text{a}}$ and$​​\vec{\text{b}}.$
Given,
$|\vec{\text{a}}|=\sqrt{3};\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|=2;​​\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}=\sqrt{6}$
We know that
$\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}=|\vec{\text{a}}|\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|\cos\theta$
$\Rightarrow\sqrt{6}=(\sqrt{3})(2)\cos\theta$
$\Rightarrow\cos\theta=\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2\sqrt{3}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
$\Rightarrow\theta=\cos^{-1}\Big(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\Big)=\frac{\pi}{4}$
