Components, Magnitude and Angle of a vector.

Description

By positioning the point A, the values for the Vector from the origin to point A are shown. Both the components and ,magnitude and angle, are shown as well as the equations for translating between values.

Components, Magnitude and Angle of a vector.

Instructions

Try moving the point to the various quadrants. Look at the signs of the components. Imagine a reference triangle between the vector and the x axis, what would sine and cosine of the origin angle be relative to the component signs?
