The angle formed by vector with x-axis is nearly 35°
Explanation:
The magnitude of resultant vector in three dimension
If vector A = 4i + 3j + 5k
The calculated magnitude | A | =
=
= 7
If the angle formed with x-axis by this vector is α
Then cosα = x-component of vector divided by its magnitude
or cosα =
= 0.57
and angle α = 35° approx
