Apps 12, Mar 25th

Today we talked briefly about the project for this chapter. I described an example but I did not work through it completely as we have not covered some of the necessary math yet. Then we worked on multiplying vectors by scalars. The key element was using a good scale for your original vector and measuring it with a ruler. Then all the other vectors could be drawn by using your scale to convert them into a length. We also used the other edge of the ruler to keep our lines parallel.

Assignment P. 322 # 1 - 5.
Assignment. I handed out a worksheet in class. It can be found here.
