11Vector notation — This page is an overview of the common notations used when working with vectors, which may be spatial or more abstract members of vector spaces.The common typographic convention for representing a vector is upright boldface type, as in v for a… …
12vector analysis — the branch of calculus that deals with vectors and processes involving vectors. * * * ▪ mathematics Introduction a branch of mathematics that deals with quantities that have both magnitude and direction. Some physical and geometric… …
13Vector space — This article is about linear (vector) spaces. For the structure in incidence geometry, see Linear space (geometry). Vector addition and scalar multiplication: a vector v (blue) is added to another vector w (red, upper illustration). Below, w is… …
14Vector — In medicine, a vector is a carrier. The best way to understand a vector is to recall its origin as a word. Vector is the Latin word for a bearer. In parasitology (the study of parasitic organisms), the vector carries the parasitic agent. For… …

18Direction cosine — In analytic geometry, the direction cosines of a vector are the cosines of the angles between the vector and the three coordinate axes. Or equivalently it is the component contributions to the unit vector. If v is a vector where is a basis. Then… …
19vector space — Math. an additive group in which addition is commutative and with which is associated a field of scalars, as the field of real numbers, such that the product of a scalar and an element of the group or a vector is defined, the product of two… …
