21. Vectors
•A vector is an object that has a magnitude and a direction.
•Given two points P1: and P2: on the plane, a
vector v that connects the points from P1 to P2 is
v = i + j.
•Unit vectors are vectors of length 1.
•i is the unit vector in the x direction.
•j is the unit vector in the y direction.
•A unit vector in the direction of v is v/||v||
•A vector v can be represented in component form
by v = v
x
i + v
y
j.
•The magnitude of v is ||v|| =
•Using the angle that the vector makes with x-axis in
standard position and the vector’s magnitude, component
form can be written as v = ||v||cos(θ)i + ||v||sin(θ)j

22. Vector Operations
Scalar multiplication: A vector can be multiplied by any scalar (or number).
Example: Let v = 5i + 4j, k = 7. Then kv = 7(5i + 4j) = 35i + 28j.
Dot Product: Multiplication of two
vectors.
Let v = v
x
i + v
y
j, w = w
x
i + w
y
j.
v · w = v
x

+ v
y
w
y
Example: Let v = 5i + 4j, w = –2i + 3j.
v · w = (5)(–2) + (4)(3) = –10 + 12 = 2.
Two vectors v and w are orthogonal (perpendicular) iff v · w = 0.
Addition/subtraction of vectors: Add/subtract same components.
Example Let v = 5i + 4j, w = –2i + 3j.
v + w = (5i + 4j) + (–2i + 3j) = (5 – 2)i + (4 + 3)j = 3i + 7j.
3v – 2w = 3(5i + 4j) – 2(–2i + 3j) = (15i + 12j) + (4i – 6j) = 19i + 6j.
||3v – 2w|| = 9.19397619

Alternate Dot Product formula v · w = ||v||||w||cos(θ). The angle θ is the
angle between the two vectors.
