The discussion revolves around calculating the magnitude of the vector sum of two vectors, given their magnitudes and the dot product. The subject area is vector mathematics.
Some participants express agreement with the calculations presented, while others provide feedback on notation clarity. The discussion appears to be constructive, with participants engaging in verification of the approach taken.
There is a mention of notation difficulties, specifically regarding the representation of vector magnitudes, which may affect clarity in communication.
Your notation is difficult to read. For magnitudes, which I think is what you're trying to convey here, just use the "pipe" character - |. On my keyboard it is above the backslash key, \.Math9999 said:If \parallel u\=2, \parallel v\=√3, and u*v=1, find \parallel u+v\.
