- Theorem — The dot product and the angle
- Theorem — Properties
Also in this section: 1 worked example, 1 note on method and common errors.
Orthogonal projection
- Definition — Orthogonal projection
Also in this section: 1 worked example, 1 note on method and common errors, 1 diagram.
The cross product
- Definition — Cross product
- Theorem — What the cross product is for
Also in this section: 1 worked example, 2 notes on method and common errors.
The scalar triple product, areas and volumes
- Definition — Scalar triple product
- Theorem — Areas and volumes
- Theorem — Coplanarity
Also in this section: 1 worked example.
Choosing the right product
Also in this section: 1 worked example, 2 notes on method and common errors.
Where the notes are
The notes are one of the documents in the CEGEP Linear Algebra Solutions Bundle, beside the unit test, the challenge problems and every worked answer key. The Products of Vectors practice worksheet is free and stays free.
Every CEGEP Linear Algebra topic — the complete Solutions Bundle
One download, one payment, the whole program. For all 7 CEGEP Linear Algebra units: the worksheet, the reference notes, the challenge set, the unit test and every answer key — these notes included.
- Worked solutions, not answer lists — every step written out
- Covers the whole year's program at this level
- Less than the price of one hour of tutoring — for the entire year's solutions
Practise it, then test yourself
Notes on their own do not make anything stick. This unit has a free, printable practice worksheet, and an end-of-unit test that comes with the bundle.
