Vectors Learning Outcomes Understand the difference between a vector and a scalar use vector notation Add and subtract vectors and use vector diagrams Know that if one vector is a multiple of the other, they are parallel Prove three points lie on the same line by proving they have a common point and that the vectors which compose them are parallel Understand and use position vectors
Vectors A vector has a magnitude and direction. a b (i) a + b (ii) a - b (iii) 2a
Vectors (iv) 2a + 3b (iv) 2a - 2b
