Question

Write two different vectors having same direction

Open in App
Solution

Consider p=(^i+^j+^k) and q=(2^i+2^j+2^k)
The directions cosines of p are given by,
l=112+12+12=13,m=112+12+12=13, and n=112+12+12=13.
The direction cosines of q are given by
l=222+22+22=223=13,m=222+22+22=223=13, and n=222+22+22=223=13.
The direction cosines of p and q are the same. Hence, the two vectors have the same direction.
