Homework Statement
The components of vectors and are given as follows:
Ax = +5.7 Bx = -9.8
Ay = -3.6 By = -6.5
The magnitude of the vector difference ,B-A is closest to:
Homework Equations
A=square root (ax)^2+ay^2
B= square root (bx)^2 + by^2
The Attempt at a Solution
Pretty much what I did was get the magnitude for A by using the above formula, and for A I got 6.7 and for B I got 11.79, I then subtracted B-A to get 5.0. However the answer is 16 I don't understand how that can be the case.
Thank you
