Find two unit vectos that are orthogonal to both [0,1,2] and [1,-2,3]

Mathematics

Answer:

Let the vectors be

a = [0, 1, 2] and

b = [1, -2, 3]

( 1 ) The cross product of a and b (a x b) is the vector that is perpendicular (orthogonal) to a and b.

Let the cross product be another vector c.

To find the cross product (c) of a and b, we have

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\0&1&2\\1&-2&3\end{array}\right]

c = i(3 + 4) - j(0 - 2) + k(0 - 1)

c = 7i + 2j - k

c = [7, 2, -1]

( 2 ) Convert the orthogonal vector (c) to a unit vector using the formula:

c / | c |

Where | c | = √ (7)² + (2)² + (-1)²  = 3√6

Therefore, the unit vector is

\frac{[7,2,-1]}{3\sqrt{6} }

or

[ \frac{7}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{2}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{-1}{3\sqrt{6} } ]

The other unit vector which is also orthogonal to a and b is calculated by multiplying the first unit vector by -1. The result is as follows:

[ \frac{-7}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{-2}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{1}{3\sqrt{6} } ]

In conclusion, the two unit vectors are;

[ \frac{7}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{2}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{-1}{3\sqrt{6} } ]

and

[ \frac{-7}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{-2}{3\sqrt{6} } , \frac{1}{3\sqrt{6} } ]

Order the group of quadratic functions from widest to narrowest graph.
Alika [10]
In a quadratic function, y = a(x²) the smaller the coefficient "a", the larger is the parabola:
From widest to narrowest:

1) y=1/3x² (Widest)

2) y= -1/2x² (Wider)

3) y=-9x² (narrowest)

Help plz dis is a lil importatnete
Goryan [66]

Following order of operations:

3^2 = 9

(10-2) = 8

Now you have :

9 + 8 x 5 -4

Multiplication is next:

9 + 40 -4

Now just add and subtract from left to right:

9 + 40 = 49

49-4 = 45

The answer is 45

Using the Distance Formula, calculate the distance between the three points: (3 points)
AlladinOne [14]

The distance formula between two points is d∧2=(x2-x1)∧2 + (y2-y1)∧2

The distance between Vista and Oceanside is

d1∧2=(-1-(-6))∧2+(6-2)∧2=(-1+6)∧2+4∧2=5∧2+16=25+16=41 => d=√41= 6.4

The distance between Oceanside and Alpena is

d2∧2=(0-(-1))∧2+(-1-6)∧2=1+(-7)∧2=1+49=50 => d2=√50=7.07

The distance between Vista and Alpena is

d3∧2=(0-(-6))∧2+(-1-2)∧2=36+9=45 => d3=√45= 6.7

Answer a) is Oceanside and Alpena

Answer b) is Vista and Oceanside

Good luck!!!
