Magnitude of a Vector WORKSHEET
Suitable for Grades: Pre-Calculus
CCSS: HSN.VM.B.5.B
CCSS Description: Compute the magnitude of a scalar multiple cv using ||cv|| = |c|v. Compute the direction of cv knowing that when |c|v ≠ 0, the direction of cv is either along v (for c > 0) or against v (for c < 0).
Magnitude of a Vector WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
This worksheet is designed to consolidate the understanding of the magnitude of a vector. Section A wants learners to think about the magnitude of vectors a, b, and c and combinations of them along with their magnitude and column vector. Section B then extends this to a geometrical problem involving a trapezoid.
All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Math.
