Solution
Solution Steps
To express \(\overrightarrow{XY}\) as an ordered pair, subtract the coordinates of point \(X\) from the coordinates of point \(Y\).
To find the component form of the vector \(\overrightarrow{AB}\), subtract the coordinates of point \(A\) from the coordinates of point \(B\).
Step 1: Calculate \(\overrightarrow{XY}\)
To express \(\overrightarrow{XY}\) as an ordered pair, we subtract the coordinates of point \(X(1, 2)\) from the coordinates of point \(Y(4, 5)\):
To find the component form of the vector \(\overrightarrow{AB}\) with initial point \(A(3, 5)\) and terminal point \(B(1, 2)\), we subtract the coordinates of point \(A\) from the coordinates of point \(B\):
