1 Vectors A quantity which has both magnitude and direction is called a vector. Vector notations A B a AB = a AB x and y are the components of vector AB. P Q b Equal vectors AB = PQ They have the same magnitude and the same direction.

2 Addition and subtraction of vectors P Q P+Q P Q

3 Addition and subtraction of vectors P Q P Q P-Q -Q P-Q

4 Scalar multiplication a b b a b = 3a c c c = -2a

5 Example A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T The diagram shows four sets of equally-spaced parallel lines. Given that and that Express the following vectors in terms of a and b.

6 Example Given that vectors a and b are not parallel, state whether or not each of the following pairs of vectors are parallel.
