The video tutorial explains how to use dot products to find the angle between two vectors. It covers the formula for calculating angles using dot products and vector magnitudes, and discusses how to classify angles as acute, obtuse, or right based on cosine values. The tutorial also explains how to determine if vectors are orthogonal or parallel by examining their dot products and scalar multiples. Key concepts include understanding the relationship between dot products, vector magnitudes, and angles.

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

• Secant of theta equals dot product over magnitudes

• Sine of theta equals dot product over magnitudes

• Cosine of theta equals dot product over magnitudes

• Tangent of theta equals dot product over magnitudes
