• 13.0 Students know the law of sines and the law of cosines and apply those laws to solve problems.
• 14.0 Students determine the area of a triangle, given one angle and the two adjacent sides.
• 19.0 Students are adept at using trigonometry in a variety of applications and word problems.

Vector
• Directed line segments
• Named by initial point and terminal point (like a ray, in geometry)
Ex: PQ
Q
P

• Vectors have direction and magnitude
• Magnitude = length
• Given the endpoints of a vector use the distance formula to find its magnitude

• Vectors with the same direction and magnitude are equal.
• Vectors can also be named using a single, bold, lowercase letter
Ex: u=PQ

vector operations: scalar multiplication
• Scalar – number• To multiply a vector by a scalar – multiply
each component by that scalarex 4,3t

vector operations: addition
• Visually, vectors can be added using the parallelogram law
– Join vectors tail to head– Resultant vector is diagonal of parallelogram

Unit vectors
• Remember a unit vector is any vector with magnitude of 1
• To find a unit vector in the direction of a vector v, divide the vector by its magnitude
Ex. Find the unit vector in the direction of <5,-2>

• ALL vectors in a plane can be written as a combination of i and j
jiz yxyx zzzz ,
• Ex. W has an intial point at (6,6) and terminal point (-8,3) write it as a combination of i and j
W in component form is <-14, -3>
As a combination of i and j, W = -14i – 3j
