What is the direction of v   =   ( -3, 2, 4)T ?

Answer:

Calculate the unit vector:

  1. | v |2   =   9 + 4 + 16   =   29
  2. vu   =   v / 29

Right Angles

vectors at right angles

There is an interesting result when the directions of two vectors are 90° apart. For example, oriented at along the x axis and along the y axis.
