The first of these is called the dot product. When we take the dot product of vectors, the result is a scalar. For this reason, the dot product is also called the scalar product and sometimes the inner product.

It defines the dot product mathematically in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) and explains properties like commutativity and distributivity. Length is derived from the dot product, and the distance between points is defined as the length of the connecting vector. Unit vectors are introduced, and orthogonality is defined as having a dot product of zero.
