Draw any quadrilateral Find the midpoints of each
- Slides: 23
Draw any quadrilateral Find the midpoints of each side Connect them in order… And you get a parallelogram This is always true no matter what quadrilateral you draw Geometric problems like this can be understood using vectors. Vectors are also used to understand physical situations, such as the motion of objects acted on by different forces, as you will see further in A-Level Mechanics.
What is a vector? A vector describes the direction and length of a movement You have already met column vectors when describing shape translations 6 left, 1 down E Vectors can also be represented by a single letter in bold or by the letters at the start and finish with an arrow above them Eg PQRS is a parallelogram P D Q 0 left/right, 5 up F Eg Write down the vector needed to translate from: F to E E to D S R
Column vectors Eg P is the point (1, 5), Q is the point (9, 3) a) Write down the vector Write your answer as a column vector M is the midpoint of PQ (b) Find the vector Write your answer as a column vector R P M Q PQR is a triangle. (b) Find the vector Write your answer as a column vector
Resultant vectors The outcome of a combination of vectors is called a resultant vector Eg If a and b are the vectors given below, draw diagrams to represent: i) a + 2 b ii) b – ½a a + 2 b iii) 3(a – b) = 3 a – 3 b 3(a – b) a + b means do a followed by b b a a - b means do a followed by b backwards Vectors can be manipulated algebraically
Resultant vectors Eg In the following diagram, write some equations about the vectors e c g b d f a

6. OPQ is a triangle. T is the point on PQ for which PT : TQ = 2 : 1 Q T (a) Write down, in terms of a and b, an expression for (b) Express O in terms of a and b.

Express in terms of a and c. O C
Diagram NOT accurately drawn Eg OPQR is a trapezium with PQ parallel to OR. P M is the midpoint of PQ N is the midpoint of OR in terms of a and b. 2 lines AB and CD are parallel if for some value k Q X O (a) Find the vector M Y R N X is the midpoint of MN Y is the midpoint of QR. (b) Prove that XY is parallel to OR.

8. OABC is a parallelogram. P is the point on AC such that AP = AC A B (a) Find the vector Give your answer in terms of a and c M P O C The midpoint of CB is M. (b) Prove that OPM is a straight line. As parallelogram, and OPM is a straight line.
C 9. CDEF is a quadrilateral with (a) Express D M in terms of a and b. X (b) Prove that FE is parallel to CD. so parallel Diagram NOT accurately drawn M is the midpoint of DE. (c) Express E F in terms of a and b. X is the point on FM such that FX : XM = 4 : 1 (d) Prove that C, X and E lie on the same straight line. and CXE is a straight line.
10. The diagram shows a regular hexagon ABCDEF with centre O. A B (a) Express in terms of a and/or b Y X (i) F C O (ii) X is the midpoint of BC. (b) Express in terms of a and/or b E D Y is the point on AB extended, such that AB : BY = 3: 2 (c) Prove that E, X and Y lie on the same straight line and EXY is a straight line. A regular hexagon can be split into 6 equilateral triangles
Proving that the midpoints of any quadrilateral form a parallelogram using vectors C F G a B D b E H c A Therefore 2 pairs of opposite sides with the same length and direction - a parallelogram!
