Vector Flashcards
Given 2 coordinate to find equation of line.
1
Q
Find equation of the line that pass through A (1, 2, 3) and B (4, 5, 6).
A
i + 2j + 3k + w (vector AB).
Vector AB = OB -OA.
2
Q
Show that 2 lines not intersect (skew).
A
Expand 2 equation to ijk form.
Compare ijk to find w and m.
Not all the w and m are same.
3
Q
Turn vector equation to cartesian equation.
A
Nr = Nr Position vector × direction vector = position vector x direction vector Ijk x ijk = (xi×yj+zk) x ijk ixi + jxj + kxk = xyz Value = xyz Xyz = value
4
Q
Find intersecting point between line and plane.
A
Find general form of line.
Sub lamda into plane equation to get lamda.
Use lamda sub into line equation to find position vector.
