How do you find the magnitude of a vector given two points?

Back

Use the distance formula: Magnitude = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

What are the components of a vector?

Back

The components of a vector are its horizontal (x) and vertical (y) values.

Front

How do you represent a vector graphically?

Back

A vector is represented graphically by an arrow, where the length indicates magnitude and the arrowhead indicates direction.

Front

What is the difference between a scalar and a vector?

Back

A scalar has only magnitude, while a vector has both magnitude and direction.

How do you add two vectors graphically?

Back

Place the tail of the second vector at the head of the first vector and draw a new vector from the tail of the first to the head of the second.
