1.10.3 Magnitude and direction of vectors

Card 1 of 23

Which formula gives the magnitude of (xy)\begin{pmatrix}x\\y\end{pmatrix}(xy​)?

A

∣a∣=x2+y2|\mathbf{a}|=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}∣a∣=x2+y2​

B

In the fourth quadrant, the direction is θ=360∘−α\boxed{\theta=360^\circ-\alpha}θ=360∘−α​.

C

Third quadrant

D

Fourth quadrant
