A vector is a directed line segment that has length and direction.

  • Vector equality: Two vectors are equal when they have same length and direction

Definition: Standard basis in

Standard basis vectors for are

All vectors in can be written in terms of .

Unit vector: Vectors with length 1 Normalization of vectors: To find a unit vector going in the direction of a given vector, take

Inner Product (dot product)

The standard dot product of two vectors and is:

The angle between two vectors can be found with:

The two vectors and are perpendicular iff .

Cross Product

The cross-product is anti-communicative, such that:

It is also distributive, such that:

The angle between two vectors can be found with:
