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

Back

Subtract the coordinates of the initial point from the terminal point. For example, for points R(-12, 4) and S(28, -17), the vector RS is given by S - R = (28 - (-12), -17 - 4) = (40, -21).

Given u = <3, 7> and v = <-5, 4>, what is 2v - 3u?

Back

2v - 3u = <2*-5, 2*4> - <3*3, 3*7> = <-10, 8> - <9, 21> = <-19, -13>.

What is the dot product of two vectors?

Back

The dot product of vectors u = and v = is u · v = u1*v1 + u2*v2.
