Vector Operations: Monday, 2/27 - Wednesday, 3/8

Post date: Feb 27, 2017 4:27:19 PM

We are using vectors and performing operations on them.

Monday, 2/27 - we practiced the algebra of 3D vectors. Here are the problems from class. Your HW is NE p. 634/OE p. 619 (Ex. 14.1) #5a, 11, 14, 15, 21.

Tuesday, 2/28 - we used unit vectors and checked to see if vectors are parallel. Here are the slides from class. Your HW is NE p. 416/OE p. 406 (Ex. 9.3) #5-6, 8-10, and for an optional challenge, #25.

Wednesday, 3/1 - we looked at the dot product for two vectors. Here is the guided worksheet from class. Your HW is NE p. 424/OE p. 414 (Ex. 9.4) #1abc, 5a, 12, (optional challenge #11) & NE p. 642/OE p.627 (Ex. 14.2) #1ab, 2, 16.

Thursday, 3/2 - we reviewed where the dot product comes from and why it makes sense to use it. Here are the slides from class. Your HW is NE p. 424/OE p. 414 (Ex. 9.4) #3, 10 & NE p. 642/OE p. 627 (Ex. 14.2) #7, 8, 19, 26.

Friday, 3/3 - We practiced a variety of dot product problems. Here are the problems we tried in class. Here are some vector practice problems, part of which is your HW for the weekend.

Monday, 3/6 - we did practice problems on all the vector topics we've seen so far. Here are the problems from class. Here are the solutions to those problems to help you study.

Tuesday, 3/7 - you had an IPS assignment on applications of vectors.

Wednesday, 3/8 - we have a quiz on vector representations, vector algebra, and vector geometry, and the dot product.
