TOPIC 01

The fundamental theorem of space vectors

Recognise a basis and use unique vector coordinates and affine combinations.

Use one hint at a time. A correction explains what changed, not just the final answer.

01 / Foundation#Your turn

v=2e_1-e_2+5e_3

A basis must be independent. Weights representing a point in a plane sum to one.

Skills and prerequisite lessons

Working and explanation

BUILD THE REASONING

Hint 1

Use vector components and the distributive laws.

Hint 2

Use this intermediate relation.

v=(x,y,z)

Worked solution

The requested value is 5.

Checks and common pitfalls: A basis coefficient is a coordinate relative to that basis.

Think first. Reveal a hint when the class is ready.

Teacher preparation and assessment

Basis: Three noncoplanar vectors span space uniquely.
$v=xe_1+ye_2+ze_3$
Independence and affine points: A basis must be independent. Weights representing a point in a plane sum to one.

Three vectors are not automatically a basis merely because there are three of them.
