Scalar Multiples WORKSHEET
Suitable for Grades: Pre-Calculus
CCSS: HSN.VM.B.5
CCSS Description: (+) Multiply a vector by a scalar. a. Represent scalar multiplication graphically by scaling vectors and possibly reversing their direction; perform scalar multiplication component-wise, e.g., as c(vx, vy) = (cvx, cvy). b. 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
Scalar Multiples WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
This worksheet is designed to support the understanding of parallel vectors being scalar multiples of each other. Section A focuses on multiple of column vectors, followed by section B which then looks at the concept diagrammatically.
