Prealculus - Unit Three
Hogsmeade by Vectors
This unit covers vectors in the plane, including component form, vector operations, unit vectors, direction angles, applications of vectors, the dot product, angles between two vectors, and finding vector components. These ideas are developed through exploration and discovery, combined with technology resources and hands-on activities that allow students to manipulate the vectors and see connections between the mathematics content and real-world situations.
