Introduction to Column Vectors

A column vector describes a translation: e.g. \begin{pmatrix}6\\3\end{pmatrix} means 6 right, 3 up.
Add/subtract vectors component-wise: top numbers together, bottom numbers together.
Multiply a vector by a scalar (a number) by multiplying each component.
Follow order of operations when combining scalar multiplication and addition.
Example: 2\begin{pmatrix}5\\2\end{pmatrix}+5\begin{pmatrix}3\\-1\end{pmatrix}=\begin{pmatrix}10\\4\end{pmatrix}+\begin{pmatrix}15\\-5\end{pmatrix}=\begin{pmatrix}25\\-1\end{pmatrix}.

Column vector components

Representing Vectors as Diagrams

A vector has magnitude (size) and direction; shown by an arrow.
Vectors are written in bold (or underlined by hand), e.g. \mathbf{a} or \underline{a}.
\overrightarrow{AB} goes from A to B; \overrightarrow{BA} is opposite direction.
To draw \begin{pmatrix}3\\4\end{pmatrix}, start at a point, move 3 right, 4 up, draw arrow.
Multiplying by a positive scalar changes length but not direction; negative scalar reverses direction.
To add vectors diagrammatically, place them tip-to-tail; the resultant goes from start to end.

Drawing vectors a, b and c on a grid

Magnitude of a Vector

The magnitude (modulus) of a vector is its length, always positive.
For \mathbf{a}=\begin{pmatrix}x\\y\end{pmatrix}, |\mathbf{a}|=\√{x²+y²} (Pythagoras).
Magnitude is independent of direction: |\overrightarrow{AB}|=|\overrightarrow{BA}|.
If a vector is multiplied by scalar k, its magnitude is multiplied by |k|.

Position & Displacement Vectors

A position vector locates a point relative to the origin O: \overrightarrow{OA}=\mathbf{a}.
Coordinates equal components: point (3,-2) has position vector \begin{pmatrix}3\\-2\end{pmatrix}.
A displacement vector goes from one point to another: \overrightarrow{AB}=\mathbf{b}-\mathbf{a}.
Use \overrightarrow{AB}=-\mathbf{a}+\mathbf{b} to find displacement from position vectors.

Finding Vector Paths

A vector path is a sequence of vectors from start to end.
In a grid of parallelograms, horizontal moves are multiples of one vector, diagonal moves of another.
Count steps in each direction to express a vector in terms of given vectors.
Negative signs indicate opposite direction.

Problem Solving with Vectors

Two vectors are parallel if one is a scalar multiple of the other.
To prove three points are collinear, show two vectors between them are parallel and share a common point.
Ratios along a line: if AX:XB=3:5, then \overrightarrow{AX}=\frac{3}{8}\overrightarrow{AB}.
Use vector algebra to find unknown points or prove geometric properties.

## Vectors - IGCSE Maths (CIE) Extended ### Column Vectors - A column vector describes a translation: \(\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix}\) means \(x\) units right, \(y\) units up. - **Addition**: Add top and bottom numbers separately: \(\begin{pmatrix} 5 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix} + \begin{pmatrix} 3 \\ -1 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 8 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}\). - **Subtraction**: Subtract components: \(\begin{pmatrix} 5 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix} - \begin{pmatrix} 3 \\ -1 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 3 \end{pmatrix}\). - **Scalar multiplication**: Multiply each component: \(3\begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ -1 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 6 \\ -3 \end{pmatrix}\). ### Magnitude (Modulus) - Length of vector \(\mathbf{a} = \begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix}\): \(|\mathbf{a}| = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}\). - Always positive; direction irrelevant. ### Position & Displacement Vectors - **Position vector** of point A from origin O: \(\overrightarrow{OA} = \mathbf{a}\). - **Displacement vector** from A to B: \(\overrightarrow{AB} = \mathbf{b} - \mathbf{a}\). ### Vector Paths - Follow paths using given vectors (e.g., \(\mathbf{a}\), \(\mathbf{b}\)). - Opposite direction: \(-\mathbf{a}\). - Simplify by combining like terms. ### Problem Solving - **Parallel vectors**: One is scalar multiple of the other: \(\mathbf{b} = k\mathbf{a}\). - **Collinearity**: Show two vectors are parallel and share a common point. - **Ratios**: Convert to fractions. E.g., \(AP:PC = 3:1\) means \(\overrightarrow{AP} = \frac{3}{4}\overrightarrow{AC}\). ### Key Formulas - \(\overrightarrow{AB} = \mathbf{b} - \mathbf{a}\) - \(|\mathbf{a}| = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}\) - Parallel: \(\mathbf{b} = k\mathbf{a}\)

Column Vector: A vector written as \(\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix}\) representing horizontal and vertical components.
Magnitude: The length of a vector, found using Pythagoras: \(\sqrt{x^2 + y^2}\).
Position Vector: The vector from the origin O to a point, e.g., \(\overrightarrow{OA} = \mathbf{a}\).
Displacement Vector: The vector from one point to another: \(\overrightarrow{AB} = \mathbf{b} - \mathbf{a}\).
Scalar: A number that multiplies a vector, changing its magnitude but not direction (unless negative).
Parallel Vectors: Vectors that are scalar multiples of each other: \(\mathbf{b} = k\mathbf{a}\).
Collinear: Points that lie on the same straight line; shown by parallel vectors sharing a point.
