SHORT ANSWER. Write the word or phrase that best completes each statement or answers the question.<br />
Solve the problem.<br />
1) Let vector u have initial point P1 = (0, 2) and terminal point P2 = (3, -2). Let vector v have initial point<br />
Q1 = (3, 0) and terminal point Q2 = (6, -4). u and v have the same direction. Find u and v . Is u = v<br />
Answer:<br />
u = 5, v = 5; yes<br />
Find the magnitude v of the vector.<br />
2) v = 9i + 12j<br />
Answer: 15<br />
3) v = -i - j<br />
Answer: 2<br />
A vector v has initial point P1 and terminal point P2. Write v in terms of ai + bj.<br />
4) P1 = (-2, 3); P2 = (-5, -6)<br />
Answer: v = -3i - 9j<br />
Find the specified vector or scalar.<br />
5) v = 3i + 4j; Find 2v.<br />
Answer: 6i + 8j<br />
