Operations in Vector Algebra
We can perform various operations in Vector Algebra by taking a geometrical approach or by taking a coordinate system approach. Various operations in vector algebra are,
- Addition of Vectors
- Subtraction of Vectors
- Multiplication of Vectors by Scalar
- Scalar Triple Product of Vectors
- Multiplication of Vectors
Now we will understand each of these operations in vector algebra below in the article.
Vector Algebra
Vectors algebra is the branch of algebra that involves operations on vectors. Vectors are quantities that have both magnitude and direction so normal operations are not performed on the vectors. We can add, subtract, and multiply vector quantities using special vector algebra rules. Vectors can be easily represented in 2-D or 3-D spaces. Vector algebra has various applications it is used in solving various problems in mathematics and physics, engineering, and various other fields.
In this article, we will learn about vector algebra, operations in vector algebra, types of vectors, and others in detail.
