  1. p dot q = pq cos (theta)

    p cross q = pq sin(theta)

    (When you write this out, make sure to put vector hats on p and q on the left side of the equations, but not on the right, where I just mean the magnitudes of p and q).

    So sin(theta) = cos(theta)

    theta = arctangent(1)

    The lowest positive value of theta would be pi/4.

    It really doesn't matter how big p and q are.  Of course, if either of them is zero, then the product is zero and it doesn't matter what the angle is.
