Chapter 1: Problem 8
Demonstrate the ambiguity that results when the cross product is used to find the angle between two vectors by finding the angle between \(\mathbf{A}=3 \mathbf{a}_{x}-2 \mathbf{a}_{y}+4 \mathbf{a}_{z}\) and \(\mathbf{B}=2 \mathbf{a}_{x}+\mathbf{a}_{y}-2 \mathbf{a}_{z} .\) Does this ambiguity exist when the dot product is used?
