Vector Arithmetic

In this part we need to have a brief discussion of vector arithmetic.

Addition

We will begin with addition of two vectors. Thus, given the vectors a = a1 , a2 , a3 and b = b1 , b2 , b3 the addition of the two vectors is illustrated by the following formula.

 a→ + b→ = (a1 + b1 , a2 + b2 , a3 + b3)
