Types of Vectors
1. Unit Vectors:
Think of these as specially scaled-down versions of regular vectors. Essentially, you take any vector (let's c
Unit Vector = Vector / Magnitude
This makes the vector have a length of 1.
2. Initial Vectors:
Vectors that share the same starting point.
3. Equal Vectors:
Vectors that point in the same direction and have the same magnitude (length).
4. Collinear Vectors:
Vectors that are parallel to the same line. For example, vector a and vector c sitting neatly alongside each o
5. Coplanar Vectors:
Vectors that lie within the same plane.
6. Negative of a Vector:
This is a vector that has the same magnitude as the original but points in the opposite direction.
