x component = 4√3 î


y component = 4 j


So the vector = 4√3 î + 4 j


Magnitude = √((4√3)^2 + 4^2) = 8


And x-axis = 1 î


Therefore dot product = (4√3 î + 4 j)•(1 î + 0 j)


= (4√3)


And dot product is =


magnitude × cos (angle between vectors)


Therefore 4√3 =8 × cos (angle)


which implies cos (angle) = √3/2


Angle = 30° or 330° but since vector lies in 1st quadrant angle is 30°.


Good Luck!
