    a) - 4, no

    Step-by-step explanation:

    a•b = (x1 * x2) + (y1 * y2)

    = (7 * 0) + (2 * - 2)

    = 0 - 4

    = - 4

    Hence they are not Perpendicular

    Answer: A

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To find the inner product of two vectors (a, b) and (c, d) you would use the equation (a * c) + (b * d)

    So for (7,2) and (0,-2) the inner product would be

    (7 * 0) + (2 * - 2)

    = 4

    The vectors are only perpendicular when the inner product is equal to 0. Since it is equal to - 4 in this case, the vectors are not perpendicular.

    A - 4; no
