Answer:


cos^(-1) (\frac{8}{[tex]√(113)} )[/tex]

Explanation:

Given two vectors a and b,we are rquired to find the angle between them.

a=(8,7);b=(7,0).

Angle between two vectors can be found by dot product of them.

If a and b are two vectors then the dot product of them is given by|a||b|cos(α).

Where α is the angle between the vectors a and b.

Now
|a|=√(113)\text{ } and\text{ } |b|=√(49). and
a.b=8\ times 7+7* 0 =56.

Now cosα=
(8)/(√(113) ) so α= cosine inverse of that.

∴α=


cos^(-1) (\frac{8}{[tex]√(113)} )[/tex]
