N-VM

N-VM.1Recognize vector quantities as having both magnitude and direction. Represent vector quantities by directed line segments, and use appropriate symbols for vectors and their magnitudes (e.g., v, |v|, ||v||, v).N-VM.10Understand that the zero and identity matrices play a role in matrix addition and multiplication similar to the role of 0 and 1 in the real numbers. The determinant of a square matrix is nonzero if and only if the matrix has a multiplicative inverse.N-VM.11Multiply a vector (regarded as a matrix with one column) by a matrix of suitable dimensions to produce another vector. Work with matrices as transformations of vectors.N-VM.12Work with 2 × 2 matrices as transformations of the plane, and interpret the absolute value of the determinant in terms of area.N-VM.2Find the components of a vector by subtracting the coordinates of an initial point from the coordinates of a terminal point.N-VM.3Solve problems involving velocity and other quantities that can be represented by vectors.N-VM.4Add and subtract vectors.N-VM.5Multiply a vector by a scalar.N-VM.6Use matrices to represent and manipulate data, e.g., to represent payoffs or incidence relationships in a network.N-VM.7Multiply matrices by scalars to produce new matrices, e.g., as when all of the payoffs in a game are doubled.N-VM.8Add, subtract, and multiply matrices of appropriate dimensions.N-VM.9Understand that, unlike multiplication of numbers, matrix multiplication for square matrices is not a commutative operation, but still satisfies the associative and distributive properties.
