[QUOTE="fresh_42, post: 5463816, member: 572553"] A vector is a direction and a length. Where you "connect" them depends on what you want to do. E.g. a force has a direction and an amount. Whether you can use it to pull the chair depends on where you apply the force. I think you're on the right track. Cancel the word "smallest" and it looks ok. The angle is defined by the directions the vectors point. There is no smallest or biggest. Of course you have to put them tail to tail to determine the angle between them. [/QUOTE]
