In general it is best to conceptualize vectors as arrows in
space, and then to make calculations with them using
their components. (You must first specify a coordinate
system in order to find the components of each arrow.)
This problem gives you some practice with the
components.
Let vectors A = (1,0, -3), B = (-2, 5, 1), and
C = (3,1,1). Calculate the following, and express your
answers as ordered triplets of values separated by
commas.
