OpenStudy (jazilove):
i dont know, that's the problem
OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):
imagine the the vector is a car. What directiion are you heading in terms of East, West, North, and South?
OpenStudy (jazilove):
it is going southwest
OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):
yes, but it's also going west, more west than south

so it is going west of south?
OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):
yes, depending on what angle you are looking at we would use west of south if we were using this angle |dw:1456436752339:dw|
OpenStudy (jazilove):
So i could say "The vector is going 41 degrees west of south" ??
OpenStudy (raffle_snaffle):
yes
OpenStudy (jazilove):
ok, thank you(:
