The video tutorial explains how to find the angle between two vectors, u and v, using the cosine formula. It covers the components of each vector, graphing them, and calculating the dot product and magnitudes. The tutorial demonstrates solving for the angle theta using inverse cosine and shows how to use a calculator to find the angle in both degrees and radians, rounding to four decimal places.

What is the formula used to find the angle between two vectors?

cosine theta = (u * v) / (magnitude of u * magnitude of v)

cosine theta = (u - v) / (magnitude of u * magnitude of v)

cosine theta = (u dot v) / (magnitude of u * magnitude of v)

cosine theta = (u + v) / (magnitude of u * magnitude of v)
