Stats II Question ? [Prev. Q.] [Next Q.] [Prev. Chap.] [Next Chap.] [goto]

Find the direction cosines and the direction angles for the vector v = j - 5k (cos a,cos b, cos c) = (0,-5/261/2,-1/261/2) and (a,b,c) = (p/2,2.94,1.77) (cos a,cos b, cos c) = (0,1/261/2,-5/261/2) and (a,b,c) = (p/2,1.37,2.94) (cos a,cos b, cos c) = (0,1,-.5) and (a,b,c) = (p/2,0,2.09) (cos a,cos b, cos c) = (0,-1/261/2,-5/261/2) and (a,b,c) = (p/2,1.77,2.94) (cos a,cos b, cos c) = (0,1,-5/261/2) and (a,b,c) = (p/2,0,2.94)
