Q. Find the unit vector in the direction of v=(1,2) \vec{v}=(1,-2) .\newline \square \newline \square )\newlineShow Calculator
  1. Find Magnitude: First, find the magnitude of v\vec{v}. Magnitude = 12+(2)2=1+4=5\sqrt{1^2 + (-2)^2} = \sqrt{1 + 4} = \sqrt{5}
  2. Divide Components: Next, divide each component of v\vec{v} by the magnitude to get the unit vector. Unit vector = (15,25)\left( \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}, \frac{-2}{\sqrt{5}} \right)
  3. Simplify Components: Simplify the components if possible. Unit vector = (15,25) \left( \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}, \frac{-2}{\sqrt{5}} \right)
