Answer:

[tex]v \cdot w = 8.0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

See comment for complete question

Given

[tex]|v| = |w| = 4[/tex] --- the side lengths

Required

[tex]v \cdot w[/tex]

[tex]v \cdot w = |v| \cdot |w| \cdot (cos\theta)[/tex]

From the question, we understand that v and w are sides of an equilateral triangle.

This means that:

[tex]\theta = 60^o[/tex] --- angles in an equilateral triangle

So:

[tex]v \cdot w = |v| \cdot |w| \cdot (\cos 60)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]v \cdot w = 4 * 4 * 0.5[/tex]

[tex]v \cdot w = 8.0[/tex]
