N-VM.B. Perform operations on vectors.

    N-VM.B.4. Add and subtract vectors.

    • No tasks yet illustrate this standard.

      N-VM.B.4.a. Add vectors end-to-end, component-wise, and by the parallelogram rule. Understand that the magnitude of a sum of two vectors is typically not the sum of the magnitudes.

      • No tasks yet illustrate this standard.

      N-VM.B.4.b. Given two vectors in magnitude and direction form, determine the magnitude and direction of their sum.

      • No tasks yet illustrate this standard.

      N-VM.B.4.c. Understand vector subtraction \textbf{v} - \textbf{w} as \textbf{v} + (-\textbf{w}), where -\textbf{w} is the additive inverse of \textbf{w}, with the same magnitude as \textbf{w} and pointing in the opposite direction. Represent vector subtraction graphically by connecting the tips in the appropriate order, and perform vector subtraction component-wise.

    N-VM.B.5. Multiply a vector by a scalar.

    • No tasks yet illustrate this standard.

      N-VM.B.5.a. Represent scalar multiplication graphically by scaling vectors and possibly reversing their direction; perform scalar multiplication component-wise, e.g., as c(v_x, v_y) = (cv_x, cv_y).

      • No tasks yet illustrate this standard.

      N-VM.B.5.b. Compute the magnitude of a scalar multiple c\textbf{v} using ||c\textbf{v}|| = |c|v. Compute the direction of c\textbf{v} knowing that when |c|{v} \neq 0, the direction of c\textbf{v} is either along \textbf{v} (for c > 0) or against \textbf{v} (for c < 0).
