Prove that for all . v= |v|2. for all v R3

myininaya (myininaya):

is v a vector? and we are trying to prove \[v=|v|^2\] im pretty sure |v| means magintude vector can't be equal to its magintude unless the vector is 1 by 1 and only has positive or neutral entry

myininaya (myininaya):

tell me what the notation means

OpenStudy (anonymous):

v is a vector and yes

myininaya (myininaya):

this doesn't make sense to me is there anything missing? i can give a counterexample

myininaya (myininaya):

i cannot prove it because it is false

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the last part VR3 **V E R cubed sry

myininaya (myininaya):

pretend we have v=<-3,0,4> |v|=sqrt{9+0+16}=sqrt{25}=5 |v|^2=25 but 25 does not equal <-3,0,4> that is why im saying the statement is false and i cannot prove it i can only provide you with this counterexample (and more if you like)
