Three topics in one week... No wonder I---ahahahaah.....
SOHCAHTOA. A lot more easier now, after I reset my scientific calculator twice. I kept getting different answers from the others. I even asked asked someone else to doit on my calculator. Darn... Lost points...
Vectors. I was finally able to understand it after getting zeros in two quizzes. Ahaha.... Here's gow to do it:
A. Graphical Method
1.Determine the scale and frame that you are going to use. The frame is optional but it makes work a bit easier (for me, at least).
2. From the point of origin, draw the first vector. From the head of the first vector, draw the second vector. From the head of the second vector, draw the third vector. So on, so forth... Just make sure that the vectors are connected in a head-to-tail manner.
3. From the point of origin, draw aline to the head of the last vector drawn. This is the resultant vector.
4. To get the direction, use a protractor. To get the magnitude, measure the length of the resultant vector then convert using the scale you chose.
Will be posting the Component method soon. It's a lot easier than graphical. Just... alittle bit harder to put into words....
