Proof of Cosine law using vectors
Homework Statement Two vectors of lengths a and b make an angle θ with each other when placed tail to tail. Prove, by taking components along two perpendicular axes, that the length of the resultant vector is r=√(a^2+b^2+2abcos θ ) Homework Equations Would this be correct? How would you...- Andrewlorenzo
