Question
Find the angle betwwen two vectors $\vec{\text{a}}$ and $\vec{\text{b}}$ if$|\vec{\text{a}}|=3,\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|=3$ and $\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}=1$

Answer

Let the angle between $\vec{\text{a}}$ and $\vec{\text{b}}$ is $\theta,$ then
$\cos\theta=\frac{\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}}{|\vec{\text{a}}|\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|}$
$=\frac{1}{3.3}$
$\cos\theta=\frac{1}{9}$
$\theta=\cos^{-1}\big(\frac{1}{9}\big)$
