Slide1Section 4.1 – Vectors (in component form)Vector – directed distance
Slide2move vectors to the origin so that computations can be done.initial point terminal point
Slide3Magnitude of a vector – the length of the vectorFind the magnitude of Find the magnitude of
Slide4Given, find:
Slide5Unit Vector – Vector whose magnitude is 1.Find the unit vector having the same direction as v . Find the unit vector having the same direction as v .
