• The Dot Product and the Angle Between Vectors

  Multiply two vectors into a number: u · v = u₁v₁ + u₂v₂ equals |u||v|cos θ, which measures the angle between them, tests for right angles and gives projections.

• Vectors: Magnitude, Direction and Components

  What makes a quantity a vector, how to draw and name one, why its components come from subtracting the start from the end, and how to use vectors for velocity.
