Given that x = \(\begin{pmatrix} -4 \\ 3 \end{pmatrix}\) and y= \(\begin{pmatrix} -9 \\ 15 \end{pmatrix}\) calculate, correct to the nearest degree, the angle between the vectors
Use \(\cos\theta=\dfrac{\mathbf{x}\cdot\mathbf{y}}{|\mathbf{x}|\,|\mathbf{y}|}\) with \(\mathbf{x}=\begin{pmatrix}-4\\3\end{pmatrix},\ \mathbf{y}=\begin{pmatrix}-9\\15\end{pmatrix}\).
