	\section{Vectors}

		\definition{}
		A vector in the Euclidean plane is a directed line segment.
		\begin{center}
			\begin{tikzpicture}
				\begin{normalsize}
				\draw [->, line width = 2pt] (0,0) -- (4,-2);
				\coordinate [label = left: {$A$}] (a) at (0,0);
				\coordinate [label = right: {$B$}] (b) at (4,-2);
				\coordinate [label = above: {$v$}] (v) at (2,-.9);
				\end{normalsize}
				\coordinate [label = left:
				{$v = \overrightarrow{AB}$}] (c) at (10,-1);
			\end{tikzpicture}
		\end{center}
		\vspace{30pt}

		For the vector $v = \overrightarrow{AB}$, point $A$ is called {\it initial} and point $B$ is called {\it terminal}. \\
		Two vectors, $v = \overrightarrow{AB}$ and $w = \overrightarrow{CD}$ are considered equivalent if the quadrilateral $ABDC$ is a parallelogram.
		\vspace{20pt}

		\begin{center}
			\begin{tikzpicture}
				\begin{normalsize}
					\draw [->, line width = 2pt] (0,0) -- (4,-2);
					\coordinate [label = left: {$A$}] (a) at (0,0);
					\coordinate [label = right: {$B$}] (b) at (4,-2);
					\coordinate [label = above: {$v$}] (v) at (2,-.9);
					\draw [->, line width = 2pt] (-1,-3) -- (3,-5);
					\coordinate [label = left: {$C$}] (c) at (-1,-3);
					\coordinate [label = right: {$D$}] (d) at (3,-5);
					\coordinate [label = below: {$w$}] (w) at (1,-4.1);
					\draw (-1,-3) -- (0,0);
					\draw (3,-5) -- (4,-2);
				\end{normalsize}
			\end{tikzpicture}
		\end{center}
		\vspace{20pt}

		In other words, two vectors are equivalent if they have the same length and direction. If this is the case, we write $v = w$.

		\note[Note 1]{
			Convince yourself that this is true. Why are these two definitions of vector equivalence interchangeable?
		}

		\note[Note 2]{
			A vector is characterized by its direction and length. One cannot make a formal definition out of this observation, because a ``direction'' is formally defined in terms of a vector.

		\theorem{}
		If two distinct straight lines in the Euclidean plane form the angles of equal size with a third straight line in the plane, then they are parallel.

		In other words, to check that the lines $a$ and $b$ on the picture below have no common point, you don't need to travel to infinity.
		All you need to do is to measure the angles $\alpha$ and $\gamma$. If $\alpha = \gamma$, then $a$ is parallel to $b$. \\

		Velocities and forces of the real world are vectors in three dimensions. To keep things simple, we'll begin our study of vectors in two dimensions. Everything we are going to learn about vectors in two-dimensional space is be valid in a Euclidean space of three---or more---dimensions.

		\section{Adding Vectors}

		To find the sum of two vectors $v$ and $w$, one needs to take $w$ so that the initial point of $w$ coincides with the terminal point of $v$. The vector originating at the initial point of $v$ and terminating at the terminal point of $w$ is the sum $v + w$. \\

		\definition{The Zero Vector}<zero_vector>
		A vector that has coinciding initial and terminal points is called the {\it zero vector} and is denoted as $\overrightarrow{0}$. According to the above definition of the vector addition,
		\begin{equation}
		v + \overrightarrow{0} =
		\overrightarrow{0} + v =
		v
		\end{equation}
		for any vector $v$.

		\vfill

		\definition{Inverses of Vectors}<inverse>
		A vector $w$ such that $w + v = \overrightarrow{0}$ is called the \textit{inverse} of $v$ and is denoted as $-v$. The vector $-v$ lies either on the same straight line as $v$ or on a parallel one, has the same length as $v$, but points in the opposite direction: \\

		\begin{center}
			\begin{tikzpicture}
				\begin{normalsize}
					\draw [->, line width = 2pt] (0,0) -- (4,-2);
					\coordinate [label = above: {$v$}] (v) at (2,-.9);
					\draw [<-, line width = 2pt] (-1,-3) -- (3,-5);
					\coordinate [label = below: {$-v$}] (n) at (.85,-4.1);
				\end{normalsize}
			\end{tikzpicture}
		\end{center}
		\vspace{20pt}

		Note that $-v + v = \overrightarrow{0}$ by definition, but the validity of the equation $v + (-v) = \overrightarrow{0}$ follows from the definitions of vector addition and the zero vector. We can combine both into the following:
		\begin{equation}
		-v + v =
		v + (-v) =
		\overrightarrow{0}
		\end{equation}

		The two opposing vectors add up to the zero vector, and therefore you don't move.

		The following is the last thing we'll mention about the opposite vectors. The formula $w - v$ is defined as $w + (-v)$ for any vectors $v$ and $w$:

The product of the girls' ages equals 36 and the sum of their ages is the same as the number of the house across the street. The second lady replies that this information is not enough to figure out the age of each child. The first lady agrees and adds that her oldest daughter has beautiful blue eyes.
