Answer to Problem 1RE
The magnitude and direction of the vector in standard position with end points at
Explanation of Solution
Result used:
“The magnitude in standard position for a vector v with end points at
“The direction of the vector in standard position with given end points is calculated by substituting the coordinates of the end points
Calculation:
Given that, the coordinates of the vector is
Substitute
As the magnitude is positive, so the magnitude of the vector is 7.211.
Therefore, the magnitude of the vector in standard position with end points at
Substitute
Thus, the direction of the vector in standard position with end points at

- You are given a plane Π in R3 defined by two vectors, p1 and p2, and a subspace W in R3 spanned by twovectors, w1 and w2. Your task is to project the plane Π onto the subspace W.First, answer the question of what the projection matrix is that projects onto the subspace W and how toapply it to find the desired projection. Second, approach the task in a different way by using the Gram-Schmidtmethod to find an orthonormal basis for subspace W, before then using the resulting basis vectors for theprojection.
