Subject: Linear Algebra problem
I've been stuck on this for awhile. Let x = (1,1,1,...1) and y =
(1,2,3,...n). Both are in R^n. Let theta_n be the angle between x and y in R^n. Find limit as n-> inf of theta_n. Even though we are looking at infinite sets, it seems to me that I To find cos(theta), I need to get the magnitude of the two vectors, So far, much of this looks like other practice problems but this is Yet trying to work with the magniture of y has not panned out. From But I keep messing something up. The answer is supposted to be pi/6. Did I make some obvious error in this process? Some not so obvious Thanks for any insights.
