[@Thechallenge_hub]

7 years ago but still helpfull🔥💯

[@mathematicaleconomist4943]

It's math?

[@jibisaibu6882]

I was struggling with vectors in my masters. Thank you for explaining it so well.

[@ajzillaproductions816]

Extremely well explained.Thank you so much!

[@sandravarona8507]

Thank you so much. I was confused by the notation. Now I get it!

[@redstoneninja3375]

Needed this for a ray cast demo program that I am trying to make thanks, it really helped

[@mrstorresmath9473]

Love how you are a visual explainer. May I ask what software you use for writing and screencasting?

[@ethanwilliams9015]

Very well explained, thank you!

[@dalenassar9152]

Thanks for the helpful information!!!

Do we write the square root or keep it surd

[@Leo-im9oz]

I do not understand why the rule V1+V2 = (X1+X2), (Y1+Y2) Does not work?
That would get (-1+4), (6+3) since P us the starting position?
Why are you starting with Q and why are u using - instead of +?

[@castlecallahan1769]

could the vector also be < -5, 3 > ???

[@r2xd314]

No bc the direction of the PQ is to the right that would be the opposite direction

[@castlecallahan1769]

​@@r2xd314I see, thx

[@kashiftabbasum3958]

Thank you

[@MathCuriousity]

Could you also say vector is -5,3 ?

[@eddob]

So the distance between two points is just sqrt((Bx - Ax)^2 + (By -Ay)^2) ?? Correct me if im wrong but thats what i understood

[@hypdragonplayz6246]

Don’t you need to calculate the square root? Or do you just leave it there and that’s your answer?

[@yhc2668]

you leave it as square root

[@abelsebastian6474]

Thank you!

[@user-gs1fh9iq5w]

When u square root the answer it should be to how many decimal places

[@abuasmaa9067]

I would say 3 significant figures. But it ultimately depends on whether the examiner is asking for a certain number of decimal places
