You can use the Dot Product to find the shortest angle between the vectors. Let A be the vector defined by the dark blue colored arrow and let B be the vector defined by the cyan colored arrow.    The Dot Product of two vectors can be calculated using any of two equations. One equation states that the Dot Product of 2 vectors is the product of the magnitude of the vectors times the cosine of the shortest angle (theta) between them, written as: A . B = ||A|| ||B|| cos(theta)   The other equation
