Angle between position vectors equals angle between velocity vectors in circular motion
I don't really see how that would show the equality between θ1 and θ2- burtonjib

Yes that's exactly it. No angle was given though, the question is just asking to prove that the angle between position vectors is equal to that between the velocity vectors.- burtonjib

Angle between position vectors equals angle between velocity vectors in circular motion
1. Show that the angle between two position vectors is equal to the angle between two instantaneous velocity vectors eg. v1 and v2 when v1 and v2 are conncected tail to tail in a uniform circle. No angles are given, it is just general. 2. Has to be proven without calculus. No information...- burtonjib
