Nov. 2nd/09 NEW UNIT - Vectors

We started a new unit today called Vectors. Vectors are anything with both magnitude and direction. "How Much" and "Which way" are ways to describe vectors.

Measure Directions:
3 Ways:

1) Degrees Direction of Direction

2) Start Direction Degrees Which Way

3) Bearing/Heading
- measures less than 360 degree angles using N=0 degrees, and clockwise.

--------> = a vector because it is going a certain way.
-------- = not a vector because you don't know which direction it's going in.
