In Figure, identify the following vectors.

(i) Coinitial (ii) Equal (iii) Collinear but not equal

Open in App

Solution

(i) Vectors and are coinitial because they have the same initial point.

(ii) Vectorsandare equal because they have the same magnitude and direction.

(iii) Vectorsand are collinear but not equal. This is because although they are parallel, their directions are not the same.
