Given that P = (5, 8) and Q = (6, 9), find the component form and magnitude of vector PQ. <-1, -1>, square root of two <1, 1>, square root of two <1, 1>, 2 <-1, -1>, 2

OpenStudy (amistre64):

move them so that P is at the origin

OpenStudy (amistre64):

P = (5, 8) and Q = (6, 9) -5-8 -5 -8 ----- ------ 0,0 1,1

<1, 1>, √2 <1, 1>, 2 ok, so it would be one of this one right?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

it would be reduced to those options yes

OpenStudy (amistre64):

to determine the length (magnitude), just square, add, sqrt the parts of the vector

OpenStudy (amistre64):

1,1 1^2,1^2 1^2 + 1^2 sqrt(1^2 + 1^2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be \[\sqrt{2}\]
