In the vector space (of 2-dimensions or 3-dimensions), vector has direction and two vectors must form a angle from $0$ to $180$ degree. Let the angle of vectors $u$ and $v$ be $theta$. We know that if $lVert urVertlVert vrVert > 0$, $costheta=cfracucdotvlVert urVertlVert vrVert$.



Here I want to prove (or disprove) that: vectors $u$ and $v$ of any dimensions get smaller angle (hence bigger $costheta$) if $u$ is updated to $u'=u+av$ where $a>0$.



This claim seems true for the 2-D or 3-D case intuitively.



Thanks.

    Shouldn't the angle be $cos^-1left(dfracucdotvlVert urVertlVert vrVertright)$?
