(b) Same direction, length 1 unit
(c) Opposite direction, length 10
(d) Opposite direction, length c
Answer by Edwin McCravy(20056)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Given the vector [-5,12], find the following vectors:
(a) Same direction, twice as long
Multiply each component by 2
(b) Same direction, length 1 unit
Divide each component of original vector by 
(c) Opposite direction, length 10
Multiply each component of the answer to (b) by -10. The negative is
to make it the opposite direction.
(d) Opposite direction, length c
Multiply each component of the answer to (b) by -c. The negative is
to make it the opposite direction.
