Definition of vector addition
|
If a and v are vectors positioned so the initial point of v is at the terminal point of a then the sum u + v is the vector from the initial point of u to the terminal point of v.
PQ + QR = PR QS - PS = QP |

|
|
|
Properties of the dot product
|
a ∙ a = |a|²
a ∙ b = b ∙ a a ∙ (b + c) = a ∙ b + a ∙ c (ca) ∙ b = c(a ∙ b) = a ∙ (cb) 0 ∙ a = 0 |
|
|
Theorem 3 If Θ is the angle between vectors a and b
|
a ∙ b = |a| |b| cos Θ
cos^-1 Θ = a ∙ b ∕ |a| |b| |
|
|
Scalar projection of b onto a
|
comp(a) b = a ∙ b / |a|

|
|
vector projection of b onto a
|
proj a b = (a ∙ b / |a|²) ( a)
|
|
|

|
|
Theorem 4 If Θ is the angle between a and b then
|
|a x b| = |a| |b| sin Θ
or sin^-1 Θ = |a x b| / |a| |b| |
