How to find the magnitude and direction of a given vector

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the magnitude and directional angle of a vector. It begins with an introduction to directional angles and linear combinations, followed by a detailed explanation of how to calculate the magnitude of a vector using its components. The tutorial then covers the simplification of square roots involved in the magnitude calculation. Finally, it demonstrates how to find the directional angle using the tangent function and its inverse, providing both negative and positive angle interpretations.
