    Finding Coefficients for Vector Equivalence: A Trigonometric Approach

    Ah, actually yeah. solving all the way through u ~ 5.325 v ~ -6.682 Thanks!

    Finding Coefficients for Vector Equivalence: A Trigonometric Approach

    heh, well the problem is that isn't the right answer (it's an online submission process, and apparently 1 is not the correct answer) Going from another angle, I thought about trying to reduce it to two equations of two variables... something like: ucos(a)-vsin(a)=8 usin(a)+vcos(a)=3...

    Finding Coefficients for Vector Equivalence: A Trigonometric Approach

    Homework Statement A screenshot of the problem: http://img246.imageshack.us/img246/9194/homeworkkd6.jpg Homework Equations Not sure... possibly the dot product of two vectors? v*w = a(1)a(2) + b(1)b(2) The Attempt at a Solution Part of the problem is that I'm not entirely sure...
