Answer 1

they want the vector from T to the line DC
the vector has two parts: x (how far to the right) and y (how far up)
to move from T to the line DC
how many steps over do you go ?
how many steps up do you go ?

Answer 2

put your finger on point T. count over until you are "under" the arrow. then count up

Answer 3

<2,1>?

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

thanks.
can you also help on this one to?
What translation vector represents the path of the ball from DC to H?
The sum of the two vectors is ____.

Answer 6

do the same thing, but start at the "tail" of the second vector (start at the point (3,3) )

Answer 7

is it <4,-2>

Answer 8

yes

Answer 9

to add the two vectors
<2,1> + <4,-2>
add the x's and add the y's

Answer 10

<6,-1>

Answer 11

yes.
notice if we drew in a vector from T to H and counted, we would get <6,-1>
(it's magic)

Answer 12

thank you
very much.
