Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If the position vector of point P is (3, 4) and Q is (1, 2), what is the vector PQ?
  • Step 1: Identify the position vector of point P, which is (3, 4).
  • Step 2: Identify the position vector of point Q, which is (1, 2).
  • Step 3: To find vector PQ, we need to subtract the coordinates of point P from the coordinates of point Q.
  • Step 4: Write the subtraction as Q - P, which means (1, 2) - (3, 4).
  • Step 5: Perform the subtraction for the x-coordinates: 1 - 3 = -2.
  • Step 6: Perform the subtraction for the y-coordinates: 2 - 4 = -2.
  • Step 7: Combine the results from Step 5 and Step 6 to get the vector PQ, which is (-2, -2).
