(1,4)(1,4) , (13,6)(13,6)
Step 1
To find the position vector, subtract the initial point vector PP from the terminal point vector QQ.
Q-P=(13i+6j)-(1i+4j)Q−P=(13i+6j)−(1i+4j)
Step 2
Step 2.1
Multiply ii by 11.
13i+6j-(i+4j)13i+6j−(i+4j)
Step 2.2
Apply the distributive property.
13i+6j-i-(4j)13i+6j−i−(4j)
Step 2.3
Multiply 44 by -1−1.
13i+6j-i-4j13i+6j−i−4j
13i+6j-i-4j13i+6j−i−4j
Step 3
Step 3.1
Subtract ii from 13i13i.
6j+12i-4j6j+12i−4j
Step 3.2
Subtract 4j4j from 6j6j.
2j+12i2j+12i
2j+12i2j+12i
