1.1.58 Vector Algebra

condition: Given two geometric vectors \( \bar{P} \) and \( \bar{Q} \). Represent the vector \( \bar{P} \) as the sum of two vectors \( \overline{P_{1}} \) and \( \overline{P_{2}} \) such that the vector \( \overline{P_{1}} \) is perpendicular to the vector \( \bar{Q} \), and the vector \( \overline{P_{2}} \) is collinear to the vector \( \bar{Q} \). \[ \bar{P}(2,-4,12), \quad \bar{Q}(1,-1,-5) \]

Vector algebra is a branch of algebra that studies linear operations on vectors and their geometric properties. In the section you will find problems on the decomposition of vectors, scalar, vector and mixed products, coordinates of vectors in different bases and much more.
