1. Sec 7.5 – Advanced Vector Operations Name:

The dot product of two vectors can be calculated two ways:

�⃗⃗� ∙ �⃗⃗� = ‖�⃗⃗� ‖ ‖�⃗⃗� ‖ 𝐜𝐨𝐬(𝜽)

The same value can also be determined by finding the sum of the

products of each corresponding element.

�⃗⃗� ∙ �⃗⃗� = 𝒖𝟏𝒗𝟏 + 𝒖𝟐𝒗𝟐 + ⋯+ 𝒖𝒏𝒗𝒏

For example, let �⃗� : ⟨−4,6⟩ and 𝑣 : ⟨3,2⟩ as shown at the right.

�⃗� ∙ 𝑣 = (−4)(3) + (6)(2) = −12 + 12 = 0

Notice that the if the dot product of two non-zero vectors is 0 then the two

vectors are perpendicular. This could be proven to some extent for a

2-dimensional vectors without too much difficulty if we can assume that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.

Consider vector 𝑎 : ⟨𝑥, 𝑦⟩ would have a slope of 𝑦

𝑥 and a vector that is perpendicular must then have a slope

of − 𝑐𝑥

𝑐𝑦 where c is some constant, which would suggest that a perpendicular vector would be of the form

�⃗� : ⟨−𝑐𝑦, 𝑐𝑥⟩ which would have a dot product of 𝑎 ∙ �⃗� = (𝑥)(−𝑐𝑦) + (𝑦)(𝑐𝑥) = −𝑐𝑥𝑦 + 𝑐𝑥𝑦 = 0

1. Find the dot product of the following set of vectors, graph the vectors, and determine which are perpendicular.

a. 𝑝 : ⟨−4,3⟩

and

𝑞 : ⟨ 4 ,5 ⟩

b. �⃗⃗� : ⟨−8,2⟩

and

�⃗� : ⟨ 1, 4⟩

c. �⃗� : ⟨−4,−3,2⟩ and 𝑣 : ⟨−3,2, −3⟩

2. Answer the following using the dot product.

a. Consider the vectors 𝑝 : ⟨−6 ,4 ⟩ and

𝑞 : ⟨ 6 , 𝑎 ⟩. Using the dot product, what

value of ‘a’ would ensure the vectors are

perpendicular?

b. Consider the vectors �⃗⃗� : ⟨2, 3, −1 ⟩ and �⃗� : ⟨ 5, 𝑏 , 𝑐 ⟩.

Using the dot product, determine 2 sets of values that

would ensure the vectors are perpendicular. (Can you

determine a general solution to ensure the vectors

are perpendicular?)

The cross product of two 3-d vectors can be calculated two ways:

�⃗⃗� × �⃗⃗� = (‖�⃗⃗� ‖ ‖�⃗⃗� ‖ 𝐬𝐢𝐧(𝜽)) ∙ 𝒏

The same value can also be determined by finding the determinant of

the matrix created by

�⃗⃗� × �⃗⃗� = 𝒅𝒆𝒕 |𝒊 𝒋 �⃗⃗�

𝒖𝟏 𝒖𝟐 𝒖𝟑

𝒗𝟏 𝒗𝟐 𝒗𝟑

|

For example, let �⃗⃗� : ⟨𝟏, −𝟐, 𝟏⟩ and �⃗⃗� : ⟨𝟐, −𝟏, 𝟏⟩ as shown at the right.

�⃗� × 𝑣 = 𝑑𝑒𝑡 |𝑖 𝑗 �⃗�

1 −2 12 −1 1

|

= |𝑖 𝑗 �⃗�

1 −2 12 −1 1

| 𝑖 𝑗 1 −22 −1

This cross product creates a new vector that is perpendicular to both of the original vectors simultaneously which

we could verify with the dot product:

�⃗� ∙ 𝑐 = ⟨1, −2, 1⟩ ∙ ⟨−1, 1, 3⟩ = (1)(−1) + (−2)(1) + (1)(3) = −1 + −2 + 3 = 0

𝑣 ∙ 𝑐 = ⟨2, −1, 1⟩ ∙ ⟨−1, 1, 3⟩ = (2)(−1) + (−1)(1) + (1)(3) = −2 + −1 + 3 = 0

Since the dot products are each zero that suggests that each of the two sets of vectors are perpendicular but the

dot product of �⃗� ∙ 𝑣 = 5 so the original vectors �⃗� and 𝑣 are not perpendicular

1. Sec 7.6 – Complex Numbers (Review) Name:

For possibly several well over a thousand years, mathematicians disregarded the idea of attempting to find the square root of a negative number because at the time they thought it was absurd and useless. There is no “real”

number that when multiplied by itself is a negative value which makes finding something like √−4 seemingly impossible.

2 ∙ 2 = 4 −2 ∙ −2 = 4 0 ∙ 0 = 0 −1 ∙ −1 = 1

According to some references the first written suggestion of attempting to find the square root of a negative number may have dated all the way back to 50 A.D when Heron of Alexandria was trying to determine the volume of an impossible section of the pyramid. The first substantial noted works about finding the square root of a negative number didn’t appear again until the 1500’s when there was a math duel to see who could solve general cubic equations more effectively between three Italian mathematicians, Cardano and Ferrari versus Tartaglia. Ferrari was a student of Cardono and stood in for him during the duel. Cardano eventually published these findings in the Ars Magna. There was some argument as to who was first and who was better but the end result was that the solutions required taking square roots of negative numbers. Later in the 1600’s it was Rene Descartes, considered the father of analytical geometry, that

accidentally coined the term ‘imaginary’ to represent the number √−1 as well as the

standard form for complex numbers of 𝑎 + 𝑏√−1 . Finally, it was Leonhard Euler that gave us the standard notation of i to represent the

number √−1 and finalize the complex notation we use today of 𝑎 + 𝑏𝑖 . Today, the understanding of imaginary numbers are commonly used in several engineering studies of such topics as force stresses, electrical engineering, and resonance.

2. What does i represent? Which mathematician was the first to call the number imaginary?

What is standard form? Which mathematician was the first to use the symbol i?

What do you think i2 should be? Can you explain why it MUST be defined?

3. Simplify: a. i3 = b. i4 = c. i11 =

1. Sec 7.7 – Advanced Vector Operations Name:

The complex plane is a graphical interpretation of the complex

numbers. The x-axis becomes the “REAL NUMBER” axis and the

y-axis becomes the “IMAGINARY NUMBER” axis. Using this

concept, we can plot complex numbers using a rectangular

Cartesian coordinate system.

Consider the complex numbers

𝒂 = 𝟔 + 𝟐𝒊

𝒃 = −𝟐 − 𝟓𝒊

We can find their sum by using a vector style approach.

𝒂 + 𝒃 = (𝟔 + −𝟐) + (𝟐 + −𝟓)𝒊 = 𝟒 − 𝟑𝒊

We can also use a graphical head to tail vector style approach:

The resultant vector is located at 𝟒 − 𝟑𝒊
