Advanced Math

This week in advanced math we learned matrices and we also started to learn chapter 12. Chapter 12 has to do with vectors.

• Vectors represent motion
• Vectors have a magnitude and a direction
• To add vectors you add head to tail.
• The triangle formed by the vectors give the resultant vector
• To add vectors algebraically you add components

To find the magnitude of a vector you do (x2-x1, y2-y1)

Ex. A(11,6) B(12,7) Find vertices AB

(7-6),(12-11)

AB=1,1
