Vectors in Geometry

Le résumé fourni par la source

Ever since the development of coordinate geometry by Descartes (1596–1650), algebra and geometry have been inseparable. In this chapter, we demonstrate the power of algebraic methods to solve geometric problems. In our use of algebra, we go one step better by using vectors (which have not been invented in Descartes&s; time). The essential idea here is to pack as much meaning into as few symbols as possible.
