Example Question #361 : Vectors And Vector Operations
Given the following two vectors, 
The dot product of a paired set of vectors can be found by summing up the individual products of the multiplications between matched directional vectors.
Note that the dot product is a scalar value rather than a vector; there's no directional term.
Now considering our problem, we're given the vectors 
The dot product can be found following the example above:
Since the dot product is zero, it can be inferred that these two vectors are perpendicular!
Example Question #362 : Vectors And Vector Operations
Given the following two vectors,
