Your answers to: How would you decide if two vectors are orthogonal?
use dot product, if ac+bd=0 it is |
if the scalar product is 0 |
when they are perpendicular |
if Ux • Vx + Uy • Vy = 0 |
when you do Ux times Vx = -Ux times Vy is equal to 0 |
When they are perpendicular. |
By using the dot product and seeing if it equals 0 |
If the components for each of the vectors are opposite and one sign is changed, and if the x’s of the components = the negative of the y’s product. |
if they are perpendcular |
I would do the formula ac+bd= |
You would find if the sum of the x’s added by the sum of the y’s equal to 0. |
if they are perpendicular, or if Ux*Vx+Uy*Vy=0 |
By using the dot product and seeing if it equals 0 |
Your answers to When would you use this way to find the dot product?
wehn you are given either the magnitudes and the angle in between or the two magnitudes and the sot product, or even you can you it to find a magnitude if the angle and dot product is given |
when you have the magnitudes of the vectors, or when you need to find the angle between two vectors |
when you have the angle of the vector |
When you have the components of two vectors. |
When we have the angle and the magnitudes known. |
when you are trying to find the angle between the two vectors |
when we have the magnitude and the angle between the two tails of the vector |
when they are written in english form
when you have the magnitudes of two vectors and an included angle. |
