Vector: has both magnitude and direction. Represented with an arrow
Magnitude: length of the arrow A vector has an initial point and terminal
point to determine direction If segments have the same magnitude they
can represent the same vector

The initial point must be at the origin Complete a transformation of both points to
find the new terminal point in component form.
What are the component forms of the two vectors shown here?
(this makes it easier to determine the magnitude)

If the number is greater than 1, then only the magnitude changes
If the number is less than one, then the magnitude changes and the direction is reversed

Multiplying two vectors together Expresses and angular relationship v = <v1, v2> and w = <w1, w2> Then the dot product is v1w1 + v2w2 If the dot product = 0, the two vectors are
normal, or perpendicular to each other.
Dot Product
