  • Introduction & Dot Product7:41
  • Dot Product7:27

    Explore the dot product of vectors, including perpendicular vectors with zero, a vector with itself yielding norm squared, and the scaling rule (C A)·B = C(A·B) with a practical example.

  • Cross Product3:41

    Learn how the cross product of two two-dimensional vectors equals X1 times Y2 minus X2 times Y1 and compare it with the dot product X1 times Y1 plus X2 times Y2.

  • Dot Product & Cross Product9:33

    Explore dot product and cross product concepts through three cases, showing how vectors A, B, and C interact via symmetry, sums, and perpendicular relationships.

  • Magnitude9:52

    Explore vector magnitudes via the norm of the cross product and dot product with the angle between A and B; learn conditions for parallelism and 3d determinant form.

  • Final Assignment Chapter 1

Requirements

  • Basic pre-university mathematics (algebra and functions) is helpful but not strictly required.
