Exercise 11A
, Vectors
A vector has both magnitude and
direction. You can represent a
vector using a directed line
segment.
A vector can be represented as a
directed line segment
Two vectors are equal if they have
the same magnitude and direction a 3a
Two vectors are parallel if they
have the same direction C
