Elementary concepts of Co-ord systems

Elementary concepts of Co-ord systems
v~1 = 8i + 4j
v~2 = 2i + 8 j
• If,
v~2 6= k v~1
• Hence, v~1 and v~2 can be chosen as basis vectors of the 2-dimensional 2D
(vector) space (say x-y plane here), in the example above.
• For an n-dimensional vector space one shall have n-basis vectors.
• When basis vectors are mutually orthogonal we have an orthogonal basis
set which is unique.
• A unique 3D basis set of orthogonal unit magnitude 3 basis vectors’ set
form a 3-D Co-ordinate system.
