Find the inner product of and if = 3, 0, –1 and = 4, –2, 5, and state whether the vectors are perpendicular.

Question

30. Find the inner product of and if and , and state whether the vectors are perpendicular.

Please help !! i am so confused and lost.

Answer 1

Your typing did not come out the way you probably intended, but I am guessing your have two vertors
(3,0,-1) and (4,-2,5) and are taking the dot product

inner product or dot product = 3(4) + 0(-2) + (-1)(5)
= 12 + 0 - 5 = 7

if the dot product is zero, then the two vectors are perpendicular.
Since our answer obviously is not zero, then .....

Answer 2

Find the inner product of vectors a and b if a = (3, 0, –1) and b = (4, –2, 5,) and state whether the vectors are perpendicular.

Find the inner product of vectors a and b if a=(4,-2,-2) and b= (-7,-2,4) , and state whether the vectors are perpendicular.

Answer 3

Horre, I did the question for you.
Did you not read it ???

Answer 4

it says there should be more than one answer.. im so confused.
