  1. 〈1,-4〉
  2. 〈0,-5〉
  3. 〈2,-2〉
  4. 〈-1,4〉

Grade 11 Vectors CCSS: HSN-VM.B.4, HSN-VM.B.4b
If →a has magnitude 21 and direction 55°, and →b has magnitude 15 and direction 320°, what is the magnitude and direction of →a+→b?
  1. Magnitude 22.9, direction 57.8°.
  2. Magnitude 25.3, direction 37.2°.
  3. Magnitude 26.8, direction 357.9°.
  4. Magnitude 24.7, direction 17.8°.
Grade 11 Vectors CCSS: HSN-VM.B.4, HSN-VM.B.4a
For →w and →v, is it true that ||→w+→v|| is NEVER equal to ||→w||+||→v||? Why or why not?
  1. Yes this is true. Since the magnitude of a vector involves taking a square root, and you cannot distribute a square root over multiple terms, this can never be true.
  2. Yes this is true. For example, let →u=〈5,2〉 and →v=〈2,3〉.
  3. No, this is not true; there are times when they are equal. Looking at the vectors geometrically, and applying the law of cosines (where the sides are the magnitudes of the vectors), it can be proved that the magnitude of the sums of the vectors are in certain cases equal to the sum of the magnitudes (using some trigonometric identities).
  4. No, this is not true; there are times when they are equal. For example, let →u=〈0,2〉 and →v=〈0,3〉.

Grade 11 Vectors CCSS: HSN-VM.A.3, HSN-VM.B.4, HSN-VM.B.4b
Two boats are pulling a very large, derelict boat behind them. One boat is exerting a force of 1.1×106 N on the derelict boat in the direction S10°W.

  1. The resulting force is 1.4×106 N, in the direction S7°E.
  2. The resulting force is 2.4×106 N, in the direction S2°W.
  3. The resulting force is 3.7×105 N, in the direction S8°W.
  4. The resulting force is 1.6×106 N, in the direction S2°E.
