ee een t of DB and N is Cnn nore Find the vectors: Given that: CA= Find the vectors: _— = ¥ x J a0Example OABCis a parallelogram. 4 is represented by the vector a and OG is represented by the vector c. M is the mid-point of BC and N is the point on OB such that ON:NB = 2:1. 1. Find expressions for these vectors, giving the answers in the simplest form: ON, OM, AN and ANS 2. Show that points A, N andM lie ona straight line. A BPort 1 Point Nis 3 of the distance from O to B. OB =atc gat c) Point M is half the distance from C to B. CM = 4CB OM =0C +CM OM = c+ Sa AM = AO +OM 1 AM A -attdate Port 2 To prove thet points A, N and Mie on a straight line: Show 4) is a multiple of ay. JAN = Ji-Ja+ 30 =-Late= Therefore {4yj and Gy are parallel. They also share a common point A so they lie on the same straight line. Points which lie on the same straight line are called collinear.
