2.Let u = (2,5) and v be a vector with a magnitude of 5 at an angle of 143.130.

Represent the following vectors geometrically on a coordinate plane and
symbolically using magnitude, direction, and components:
u, v, u + v, 2u, and - 3v.

2.Let u = (2,5) and v be a vector with a magnitude of 5 at an angle of 143.130. Represent-example-1

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Recall that
\overrightarrow{v}=\langle ||\overrightarrow{v}||cos\theta,||\overrightarrow{v}||sin\theta\rangle for a vector
\overrightarrow{v} with magnitude
||v|| that makes an angle
\theta with the positive x-axis.

Thus, the component form of vector
\overrightarrow{v} is
\overrightarrow{v}=\langle5cos(143.13^\circ),5sin(143.13^\circ)\rangle=\langle-4,3\rangle

Therefore:


u=\langle2,5\rangle


v=\langle-4,3\rangle


u+v=\langle2,5\rangle+\langle-4,3\rangle=\langle2+(-4),5+3\rangle=\langle-2,8\rangle


2u=2\langle2,5\rangle=\langle2(2),2(5)\rangle=\langle4,10\rangle


-3v=-3\langle-4,3\rangle=\langle-3(-4),-3(3)\rangle=\langle12,-9\rangle
