(A) Let the given vectors be $\vec{A} = 5 \hat{i} + 12 \hat{j}$ and $\vec{B} = 3 \hat{i} + 4 \hat{j}$.First,we find the magnitudes of these vectors:$|\vec{A}| = \sqrt{5^2 + 12^2} = \sqrt{25 + 144} = \sqrt{169} = 13$.$|\vec{B}| = \sqrt{3^2 + 4^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25} = 5$.Now,the unit vectors are $\hat{n}_1 = \frac{\vec{A}}{|\vec{A}|} = \frac{1}{13}(5 \hat{i} + 12 \hat{j})$ and $\hat{n}_2 = \frac{\vec{B}}{|\vec{B}|} = \frac{1}{5}(3 \hat{i} + 4 \hat{j})$.The dot product is $\hat{n}_1 \cdot \hat{n}_2 = \left[ \frac{1}{13}(5 \hat{i} + 12 \hat{j}) ight] \cdot \left[ \frac{1}{5}(3 \hat{i} + 4 \hat{j}) ight]$.$= \frac{1}{65} (5 	imes 3 + 12 	imes 4) = \frac{1}{65} (15 + 48) = \frac{63}{65}$.
