In mathematics, a vector (from the Latin word "vehere" meaning "to carry") is a geometric entity that has magnitude (or length) and direction. Vectors can be added to other vectors according to vector algebra. Vectors play an important role in physics, engineering, and mathematics.

In mathematics, a vector (from the Latin word "vehere" which means "to carry") is a geometric object that has a magnitude (or length) and direction. A vector can be thought of as an arrow in Euclidean space, drawn from the origin of the space to a point, and denoted by a letter. The magnitude of the vector is the distance from the origin to the point, and the direction is the angle between the direction of the vector and the axis, measured counterclockwise.

Okay, let's start the program of this question. So suppose we have this coordinates. Whose? The original. The excesses and y axis. Now mul access a distance. Porn. It's okay. This is for zero. Ward zero and move downward. A distance of three units. Here we go. So this is zero minus three. Whose Okay, so obviously this coordinates of our final position will be four comma minus three.
