My teacher wrote the solution, but I didn't get it tho, I am doubting about something like when negative and positive vector cancel out which make a zero but not sure if it's related

#

Btw I missed a whole 2 week of school because of sickness

fleet depot My teacher wrote the solution, but I didn't get it tho, I am doubting about some...

Do you know what the negative of a vector is?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 12:00 AM

#

Like the same magnitude as the positive vector but opposite direction

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 12:00 AM

#

Or generally how vector addition works?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 12:01 AM

#

hallow flame Or generally how vector addition works?

Yh

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 12:01 AM

#

fleet depot Like the same magnitude as the positive vector but opposite direction

Exactly. So can you identify pairs of vectors in the problem that are negatives of each other?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 12:02 AM

#

Hold on let me see

#

for example EA with AE cancel out

#

EB and BE cancel out

#

so like EA+AE= 0 and EB+BE= 0 is like that ?

#

@hallow flame

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 12:50 AM

#

fleet depot for example EA with AE cancel out

...those vectors aren't in the problem.

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 12:55 AM

#

hallow flame ...those vectors aren't in the problem.

They're

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 12:57 AM

#

fleet depot They're

No, they aren't.

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 12:57 AM

#

hallow flame No, they aren't.

Wdym they're

#

Look

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 12:57 AM

#

"They're" isn't a thing.

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 12:58 AM

#

I don't understand your point

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 12:58 AM

#

fleet depot Look

I am looking. AE isn't in the problem.

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 12:58 AM

#

hallow flame I *am* looking. AE isn't in the problem.

I know but if you go in the opposite direction

#

It cancel out the EA

#

No?

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 12:59 AM

#

What. Is. The. Problem?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 12:59 AM

#

fleet depot

Here.

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:00 AM

#

Say. It.

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:01 AM

#

Why I have to say I if the screenshot is already there?

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:01 AM

#

So that I know that you know what it says, because you keep talking about shit it doesn't say.

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:02 AM

#

It's asking for those points that are intersecting to E and prove that are equal to vector 0

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:03 AM

#

hallow flame Exactly. So can you identify pairs of vectors in the problem that are negatives ...

You literally said that to me and I'm giving you to answer to see whether I'm correct or not

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:04 AM

#

fleet depot You literally said that to me and I'm giving you to answer to see whether I'm co...

I said identify pairs of vectors IN. THE. PROBLEM. that are negatives of each other. AE ISN'T. IN. THE. PROBLEM.

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:04 AM

#

hallow flame I said identify pairs of vectors ***IN. THE. PROBLEM.*** that are negatives of e...

AE is the negative vector of EA?

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:04 AM

#

fleet depot AE is the negative vector of EA?

IT'S NOT IN THE PROBLEM.

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:06 AM

#

hallow flame IT'S NOT IN THE PROBLEM.

Yes it's , you can see it's Going from E to A or A to E

#

If I'm wrong correct me at least

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:06 AM

#

READ. THE. PROBLEM.

#

WHAT. IS. THE. PROBLEM?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:06 AM

#

Let me read it again.

#

Done

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:08 AM

#

So which vectors are in the problem???

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:08 AM

#

EA+EB+EC+ED

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:08 AM

#

SO WHICH OF THOSE ARE NEGATIVES OF EACH OTHER?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:08 AM

#

AE BE CE DE

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:09 AM

#

NO.

#

TWO VECTORS.

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:09 AM

#

fleet depot EA+EB+EC+ED

IN THIS LIST.

#

THAT ARE NEGATIVES.

#

OF. EACH. OTHER.

#

Do you know what "each other" means???

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:10 AM

#

I don't get what so saying but go ahead

#

you

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:10 AM

#

So you literally don't know what "each other" means?????

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:10 AM

#

I know

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:11 AM

#

What do you think it means?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:12 AM

#

Mean that its parallel vector

#

Oh

#

Wait

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:13 AM

#

Not even a little bit.

#

It's not even a math term.

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:13 AM

#

Okay so like AE+ BE doesn't cancel out so if we change BE to negative which becomes it parallel side since it's same but different direction?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:14 AM

#

hallow flame Not even a little bit.

Each other mean selves

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:14 AM

#

fleet depot Each other mean selves

No!

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:14 AM

#

🙏🥲

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:15 AM

#

Wait, lemme try a new approach, what is AE + EB?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:15 AM

#

small charm Wait, lemme try a new approach, what is AE + EB?

Its resultant vector?

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:15 AM

#

Which is?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:16 AM

#

small charm Which is?

AB

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:16 AM

#

The other 2?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:16 AM

#

small charm The other 2?

Wdym?

#

I feel like I'm stupid at this point

hallow flame May 12, 2025, 1:17 AM

#

fleet depot AB

No.

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:19 AM

#

hallow flame No.

Then I don't understand

#

Yes I'm stupid

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:21 AM

#

Ok, what’s ea + ec?

#

@fleet depot

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:22 AM

#

small charm Ok, what’s ea + ec?

AC?

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:24 AM

#

No, they form a single line

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:25 AM

#

small charm No, they form a single line

Yeah which AC no?

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:27 AM

#

Well no, in vector algebra, such things add up to 0

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:28 AM

#

I knew it shit

#

I thought it was wrong

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:28 AM

#

No, it’s correct

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:29 AM

#

fleet depot I thought it was wrong

At least now u know

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:29 AM

#

Yh I know but at least you corrected.my mistake, the other person didn't want to

#

I mean I understand

#

him

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:29 AM

#

So, the other 2 add up to?

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:29 AM

#

fleet depot Yh I know but at least you corrected.my mistake, the other person didn't want to

I gotchu

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:30 AM

#

small charm So, the other 2 add up to?

@fleet depot

#

Did u get it?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:30 AM

#

small charm <@1264578722212741197>

For which vectors?

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:30 AM

#

The other 2

#

Wait

#

Eb and ed

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:30 AM

#

Oh okay

#

Let me see

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:31 AM

#

small charm Eb and ed

0?

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:31 AM

#

Yep

#

So

#

Ea + ec + eb + ed = ?

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:32 AM

#

0+0

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:32 AM

#

Yep

#

Good job

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:33 AM

#

I see now I get it and I see the point

#

I was confused

#

As first but really appreciate, I'm just sucks with Math

Just do problems ig

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:35 AM

#

small charm Just do problems ig

Yes I keep practicing until i master you're right

small charm May 12, 2025, 1:35 AM

#

It’s not such a big deal when you can’t find the answer during practice

#

Because then you can learn and you won’t make the same mistake in the exam

fleet depot May 12, 2025, 1:35 AM

#

Yes I guess it's part of learning process

#

The more mistakes the less chance making them thank you I'm going to close +close
