If the position vector of a point (–4, –3) be find
Given is the position vector of point (–4, –3).
We know position vector of a point (x, y) is given by, where
and
are unit vectors in X and Y directions.
Now, we need to find magnitude of i.e.
.
Recall the magnitude of the vector is given as
Here, x = –4 and y = –3
Thus, .
