    I just love your teaching, whether its physics or linear algebra, your always find a way to explain it so well.

    our school didn't taught about this topic so here i am studying, this is so crucial to the course that i'll choose next year. and your video lessons really helped me a lot, thank you sir~

    I loved that you mentioned that there is a angle between vector and axis where the vector is above the plane. People confuse either the angle is with vector or projection.

    I think instead of calculating cosines with calculator you can add everything up by fraction, since common denominator is 56, after all the fractions have been squared, the sqrt signs cancel. The squares of numerators add up to whatever's inside of the square root. Thus 56/56 =1

    I wish I could see where the x, y, and z components really are. I think I understand why cos of those angles = the x or y component over the magnitude of the vector, but I just don't see how the z component is "adjacent" to the angle you drew out (thus fulfilling cos angle = adjacent side/hypotenuse). I wish you can draw the "triangles" the vector makes with its components to clarify it

    As you said, the vector A does not lie in the XY plane. What I would like to know is, is the angle that it makes with X or Y axis dependent on it's Z value or we might as well consider it to be in XY plane when calculating A? I am not able to visualize it.

    In which video did you explain:
    Cos of a given component A in the X direction for example is A(x) / A
    I’ve seen all of the videos in this playlist but I haven’t seen you explain why we divide A(x) / A to get cosA

      This video shows you how that works in 2 dimensions (which makes it easier to see). Physics - Advanced E&M: Ch 1 Math Concepts (3 of 55) Direction of a Vector, Direction Cosines ua-cam.com/video/0yIvQ4pz4DA/v-deo.html Let us know if that helps.

    And then if you're asked to find the angle that the vector makes with the x-axis, you can just take the arccos of alpha... Sweet, great video!

    if the vector A= -4i-6j-2k then I should write cosa= -4/(magnitude of vector A) or cosa= +4/(magnitude of vector A)

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  6 років тому +5

      Just like in trigonometry, the trig functions are based on the unit circle (in 2-D), in 3-D everything in based on the unit sphere (with radius 1)

      It gives square of magnitude of unit vector(as magnitude of unit vector is one, therefore square of one is also one) (as you know cosa =(Ax/A) & cosb=(Ay/A) & cosr=(Az/A)

    You don't have to plug in the numbers into the calculator as you can do some simple algebraic fraction manipulations. They all cancel out in the end😅

    Hi . The expression you suggested (cosa)^2 +(cosb)^2+(cosb)^2=1 true but a^2+b^2+c^2=1 is seem to be false considering a,b,c are angles in radiants
