\bf \textit{unit vector for }(a,b)\implies \left( \cfrac{a}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}~~,~~\cfrac{b}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}} \right)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
(-3,2)\qquad \stackrel{unit~vector}{\implies }\qquad \left( \cfrac{-3}{\sqrt{(-3)^2+2^2}}~~,~~\cfrac{2}{\sqrt{(-3)^2+2^2}} \right)
\\\\\\
\left( -\cfrac{3}{\sqrt{13}}~~,~~ \cfrac{2}{\sqrt{13}}\right)\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf \textit{and now let's \underline{rationalize} the denominator for each}
\\\\\\
-\cfrac{3}{\sqrt{13}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{13}}{\sqrt{13}}\implies -\cfrac{3\sqrt{13}}{13} \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad  \cfrac{2}{\sqrt{13}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{13}}{\sqrt{13}}\implies \cfrac{2\sqrt{13}}{13}
\\\\\\
\textit{and written in \underline{ai+bj form}}\qquad -\cfrac{3\sqrt{13}}{13}i~~~~+~~~~\cfrac{2\sqrt{13}}{13}j
