What is the magnitude and direction of Vector GH if G(2, -2) and H(7, 6)?

Question

anonymous · Answer

magnitude is just the length of the vector... just take the distance between these two points.
for direction, you'll need to split it up into its i and j components.

GH = <5, 8>

so its pointing in a northeast direction.

magnitude = sqrt(25 + 64)

these are the options 
magnitude: 9.43 units; direction 32.01°
		
magnitude: 9.43 units: direction: 57.99°
		
magnitude: 6.4 units: direction: 32.01°
		
magnitude: 6.4 units; direction: 57.99°

slaaibak · Answer

to get the direction, solve for:

tan x = 8/5
