Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If A = (2, 3) and B = (4, 7), find the vector AB.
  • Step 1: Identify the coordinates of point A, which are (2, 3).
  • Step 2: Identify the coordinates of point B, which are (4, 7).
  • Step 3: To find vector AB, subtract the coordinates of A from the coordinates of B.
  • Step 4: For the x-coordinate, calculate 4 (from B) - 2 (from A) = 2.
  • Step 5: For the y-coordinate, calculate 7 (from B) - 3 (from A) = 4.
  • Step 6: Combine the results from Step 4 and Step 5 to get vector AB = (2, 4).
  • Vector Subtraction – The process of finding the vector from point A to point B by subtracting the coordinates of A from the coordinates of B.
  • Coordinate System – Understanding how points are represented in a Cartesian coordinate system.
