Vectors are said to be orthogonal if their dot product is zero.Vectors in Rn are perpendicular if they are nonzero and orthogonal.
If 'A' and 'B' are vectors, and their magnitudes are equal, andtheir directions are opposite, then their vector sum is zero.
Their sum can be zero only if their magnitudes are equal and their directions are exactly opposite.
It depends on what the dot product is meant to be equal to.
Their DIFFERENCE will be zero if and only if they have the SAME direction.

No, the zero would be too big that it would take years to finish it. Hope this helped.

When the component vectors have equal or opposite directions (sin(Θ) = 0) i.e. the vectors are parallel.
A quantity which does not equal zero is said to be nonzero.
A nonzero whole number is a quantity which does not equal zero and number without fractions.
The vector product (cross product) of two vectors will be zero when the vectors are parallel or antiparallel to each other. This means the vectors are either pointing in the same direction (parallel) or in opposite directions (antiparallel).
Any nonzero number raised to the power of zero is equal to one (1).By definition.
(A1) The dot product of two vectors is a scalar and the cross product is a vector? ================================== (A2) The cross product of two vectors, A and B, would be [a*b*sin(alpha)]C, where a = |A|; b = |B|; c = |C|; and C is vector that is orthogonal to A and B and oriented according to the right-hand rule (see the related link). The dot product of the two vectors, A and B, would be [a*b*cos(alpha)]. For [a*b*sin(alpha)]C to equal to [a*b*cos(alpha)], we have to have a trivial solution -- alpha = 0 and either a or b be zero, so that both expressions are zeroes but equal. ================================== Of course one is the number zero( scalar), and one is the zero vector. It is a small difference but worth mentioning. That is is to say if a or b is the zero vector, then a dot b must equal zero as a scalar. And similarly the cross product of any vector and the zero vector is the zero vector. (A3) The magnitude of the dot product is equal to the magnitude of the cross product when the angle between the vectors is 45 degrees.
