Homework Statement

The dot product for two.parralel pointing.unit.vectors is ?
A. 1
B. 0
C. -1
D. Undefined

2. Relevant equation

The Attempt at a Solution
since they are unit vectors they have a magnitude of 1,this implies that the dot product is 1,since the angle between them.is equal to zero and cos zero is 1,
