Column Vectors

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Column right! Using visual representations, a short video introduces the concept of column vectors. Next, the resource shows how adding two vectors end-to-end is simplified by adding the components in the column vector. The presentation finishes by going through several examples of vectors using components.
