A question about the perpendicular vector

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the concept of drawing a perpendicular vector, specifically the vector denoted as ##\vec B##, in relation to its reverse. Participants express uncertainty about the correct representation of the perpendicular vector and suggest that clarity can be achieved through examples, particularly focusing on the cross product. The need for visual aids and specific examples is emphasized to facilitate understanding of vector relationships.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of vector notation and representation
  • Familiarity with the concept of cross products in vector mathematics
  • Basic knowledge of geometric interpretations of vectors
  • Ability to interpret and create vector diagrams
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the properties of cross products in vector algebra
  • Learn how to visualize and draw perpendicular vectors
  • Explore examples of vector operations in 3D space
  • Practice creating vector diagrams using software tools like GeoGebra
USEFUL FOR

Students learning vector mathematics, educators teaching geometry and algebra, and anyone seeking to improve their understanding of vector operations and visualizations.

Neither am I, because I cannot see what you did!
Start with number (1) and show us where you want to draw ##\vec B##:

We all are :smile: !
If it is the cross product itself that causes you problems, post a typical example.
