Vector Algebra
Vector Joining Two Points
Gives the displacement vector from point A to point B in three-dimensional space.
Magnitude of a Vector
Gives the length or Euclidean norm of a vector given in rectangular components.
Unit Vector
Gives a vector of unit magnitude in the direction of a given non-zero vector.
Section Formula (Vectors)
Gives the position vector of a point dividing the segment joining points a and b in the ratio m:n internally (+) or externally (-).
Scalar (Dot) Product
Defines the scalar product of two vectors geometrically and in rectangular component form.
Condition for Perpendicular Vectors
States the necessary and sufficient condition for two non-zero vectors to be perpendicular.
Angle Between Two Vectors
Gives the cosine of the angle theta between two non-zero vectors.
Projection of a Vector
Gives the scalar projection of vector a onto vector b.
Vector (Cross) Product
Evaluates the cross product of two vectors in rectangular component form using a 3x3 determinant.
Condition for Parallel Vectors
States the collinearity or parallelism condition for two vectors in scalar multiple and cross product form.
Area of a Triangle
Calculates the area of a triangle formed by two adjacent side vectors a and b.
Area of a Parallelogram
Calculates the area of a parallelogram with adjacent sides represented by vectors a and b.
Scalar Triple Product
Computes the box product representing the signed volume of the parallelepiped formed by three vectors.
Condition for Coplanar Vectors
States the condition that three vectors are coplanar if and only if their scalar triple product is zero.
Vector Triple Product
Expands the vector triple product into a coplanar combination of b and c using the BAC-CAB rule.
