1 Lesson10.notebook November 28, 2012 Unit 2: Lines and Planes in 3 Space Linear Combinations of Vectors Today's goal: I can write vectors as linear combinations of each other using the appropriate method and can use this knowledge to help explain the difference between coplanar and collinear. Thus far we have produced resultants and scalar multiples of vectors. Now we combine the processes. Linear Combination of Vectors involve creating a vector w such that it is created from vectors u and v. w = We say that vectors u, v, and w are coplanar, or all 3 vectors are in the same plane (can be drawn on the same sheet of paper). Vectors are collinear if and only if it is possible to find a non zero scalar such that u = av. Example: Given 5u + v 7w = 0, express each vector as a linear combination of the other 2.

2 Lesson10.notebook November 28, 2012 Example: For the vectors shown in the parallelogram determine: A) a as a linear combination of b and c. B) a as a linear combination of c and d. a d c C) b as a linear combination of a, c, and d. b Example: For u, v, and w answer the following: Given u = 6, v = 9, w = 12 A) Write w as a linear combination of u and v. B) Write u as a linear combination of v and w. v u w

3 Lesson10.notebook November 28, 2012 Example: For vectors u, v, and w as shown, determine an expression for w as a linear combination of u and v given that: u = 1, v = 5, and w = u v w Example: If vector w = [15, 22, 1.5], u = [6, 2, 9], and v = [ 4, 7, 1], write w in terms of u and v. Homework page 207 # 1 11

4 Lesson11.notebook November 28, 2012 Linear Dependence and Independence Today's goal: I can explain the difference between linear dependence and independence and successfully apply those skills to appropriate problems. Linear Dependence of Two Vectors Two vectors, u and v, are linearly dependent if and only if there are scalars a and b, both non zero, such that au + bv = 0. Two vectors that DO NOT satisfy the above are independent (ie. not collinear). Diagrams: Linear Dependence of Three Vectors Three vectors: u, v, and w, are linearly dependent if and only if there are scalars: a, b, and c, not all zero, such that au + bv + cw = 0. Three vectors who DO NOT satisfy the above are independent. Diagrams:

5 Lesson11.notebook November 28, 2012 Example: Assume vectors u, v, and w are lineraly independent. Determine the values for the variables. A) (2a + 4)u + (b 3)v = 0. B) (a 7)u + (2a 3)v + 5w = 0 Example: If u = [2, 5], v = [ 3, 1], and w = [4, 2] and are linearly dependent, determine the values of a, b, and c such that au + bv + cw = 0.

6 Lesson11.notebook November 28, 2012 Example: Show that u = 2i + 5j and v = 3i 2j are linearly independent. Homework: page 213 # 2 5, 7, 10 12

7 Lesson12.notebook November 28, 2012 Parametric and Vector Equations Today's goal: I understand how vectors can be written in parametric and vector form and I can demonstrate my skill by taking provided information an creating appropriate equations. To determine the equation of a line you need to know: 1) 2) In Grade 9 we know the slope defines the "direction" a line travels. In Grade 12 we now change from slope to direction vector. Example: Find the direction vector for each line. A) A line passing through A(4, 5) and B(3, 7). B) The line l 2 with slope 4 / 5. Example: Develop the General form of the vector equation for the line through the point P o ( 3, 5) with direction vector d = (1, 2). Hint #1: The vector P 0 P is a scalar multiple of the direction vector. Hint #2: What we need to do is to write the vector P 0 P as a linear combination using the origin. Hint #3: The resulting equation is what we call the "General Form" of the vector equation.

8 Lesson12.notebook November 28, 2012 From the General Form of a vector equation we can generate the parametric equation: And finally from the Parametric Form of a vector equation we can get the Symmetric Form...

9 Lesson12.notebook November 28, 2012 Example: Determine the General, Parametric, and Symmetric Equation of a vector equation of a line passing through A(1,7) and B(5, 3). Example: Determine a direction vector that is: 1) Parallel to (x, y) = (3, 1) + t(5, 1) 2)Perpendicular to x = 3 4t y = 5 + 3t

10 Lesson12.notebook November 28, 2012 Example: Determine the vector equation for the following: 1) x 7 = y ) x = 3 4t y = 2t Homework: page 245 #2 8, 11 16

11 Lesson13.notebook November 28, 2012 Scalar Equation of a Line Today's goal: I can explain how the Standard Equation was developed and I can demonstrate my understanding by taking given information and developing a vector equation in standard form. In grade 9, the equation Ax + By + C = 0 was called the "Standard Equation" of a line. In grade 12 it is known as the Scalar equation or the Cartesian equation. Remember: The Dot Product is also known as the Scalar Product. Yesterday we talked about the "Direction" vector. In the homework you had to find a vector perpendicular to that vector. The perpendicular vector also has its own name, the "Normal" vector. Developing the Scalar Equation Develop a scalar equation of the line passing through the point P 0 (4, 1) with a normal vector, n = [3, 5].

12 Lesson13.notebook November 28, 2012 Summary: The Scalar equation can be found using either: P 0 P n = 0 or n 1 x + n 2 + C = 0, where n = [n 1, n 2 ] Example: Find the Scalar equation of the line passing through the point (6, 2) and normal to n = [2, 5].

13 Lesson13.notebook November 28, 2012 Example: Find a normal vector for the following lines: A) 3x + 2y = 7 B) [x, y] = [2, 5] + t[ 3, 1] Example: For the line 2x + 5y = 16, determine the equation of the line in the General, Parametric, and Symmetric vector form.

14 Lesson13.notebook November 28, 2012 Distance from a Point to a Line The distance from the point Q to the line Ax + By + C = 0 is determined by: P 0 n Q Example: Determine the distance between the point Q(8, 3) and the line 2x + 5y 16 = 0. Homework: page 251 # 2 9, 11, 12

15 Lesson14.notebook November 28, 2012 Matrices Today's goal: I can use a matrix to solve a problem requiring the solution of 3 equations with 3 unknowns so that I can use this skill to help interpret and better understand the interactions between lines and planes. Matrices are used to help analyze systems of equations. For systems of equations there are 3 possible outcomes: 1) Independent (A unique solution) 2) Dependent (Infinite number of solutions) 3) Inconsistent (No solution) A matrix is an array of data. Example: Determine the following values from the matrix below.

16 Lesson14.notebook November 28, 2012 Rules for Matrices and Systems of Equations 1) You can multiply any row by a non zero scalar. 2) You can add / subtract any multiple of one equation to another. 3) You can interchange rows at any time. There are two forms for a solved matrix: To get to these forms we will apply the rules stated above. Here we go! Possible outcomes for 3 x 3 matrices: (interpreted)

17 Lesson14.notebook November 28, 2012 Example: Solve 3x 4y = 18 2x + 5y = 4 Example: Solve 3x + 8y 3z = 6 2x 3y + z = 0 x + 2y z = 3

18 Lesson14.notebook November 28, 2012 Example: Solve. 2x 2y + z = 0 x + 3y + 2z = 3 2x + 6y + 12z = 10 Example: Solve. 2x y + 2z = 3 3x + 2y z = 2 5x + 8y 7z = 0 Homework Handout

How does 3 Space differ from 2 Space? Example: A line passes through the point P 0 ( 3, 5, 2) and has a direction vector of d = [1, 2, 1].

27 Lesson18.notebook December 06, 2012 Scalar Equation of a Plane Today's goal: I can take given information and create a scalar equation of a plane using previous knowledge. Why did we never get introduced to the scalar equation of a line in 3 space? Recall in 2 space: Based on what we did with 2 space we can assume the process is the same: P 0 P n = 0 and the resulting form should be Ax + By + Cz + D = 0 Summary:
