Algebra.Com's Answer #690959 by Fombitz(32388)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! So the scalar projection of u onto v is, \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Now just multiply by the unit vector in the v direction. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "So then, \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "u=6(1,0)+7(0,1) \n" ); document.write( "(1,0) and (0,1) are orthogonal since their dot product equals zero. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
