Objectives Rewrite a vector in rectangular coordinates (in terms of i and j) given the initial and terminal points of the vector. Determine the magnitude and direction of a vector given in terms if i and j. Add and subtract vectors given in terms of i and j. Multiply a vector given in terms of i and j by a real number (scalar multiplication). Find a unit vector for a vector given in terms of i and j. Write a vector in terms of i and j the magnitude and direction of the vector.
