Parts of a vector:
The first end is called beginning and the second one is called end of the vector.
Length of a vector AB→
The direction from A to B is called direction of the vector AB
a) when they lie on one line and one of the rays AB
b) when they lie on parallel lines and the ends F and H are in one half-plane according EG. We mark EF
a) when they lie on one line and the neither of the rays AB→ and CD→ is contained by the other one;
b) when they lie on parallel lines and the neds I and J are in different half-planes according HI. We mark AB→ ↑↓ CD→
D: If both ends of a vector are identical, then the vector is called zero vector and is marked as AA→=0→
D: Two vectors are equal, if they are unidirectional and have same lengths
D: Two vectors are oposed, if they are bidirectional and have same lengths
