Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

E.g1 Add vectors using the graphical method.
E.g.2 Add and subtract vectors in their corresponding components. a c
If AB = b and BC = d then AC = AB + BC a c a + c
= b + d = b + d a c
If AB = b and BC = d AC BC
then = AB - a c b d a - c
= - = ( ) b - d
E.g3 Multiply a vector by a scalar k( x )=k( kx ) y ky
E.g.4 If p=( -1 ) , q=( 43 ) , and r=( 3 ), find (i) 3q-2p (ii) r-3p (ii) q-p+2r 2 -2
