Question 1

What is the formula for projecting vector u onto vector v?

  • proj_v(u) = (⟨u
  • v⟩ / ⟨u
  • u⟩) u
  • proj_v(u) = (⟨u
  • v⟩ / ⟨v
  • v⟩) v
  • proj_u(v) = (⟨v
  • u⟩ / ⟨u
  • u⟩) u

💡 Hint: Remember the correct order of vectors in the projection formula.

Question 2

True or False: The projection of a vector can exceed the original vector's magnitude.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider what projection represents in terms of direction.
