How to Solve Vector Equations with GeoGebra

You can use GeoGebra to solve vector equations. You can solve them by using systems of equations, or by using the vectors, if you know the coordinates. There is also a separate entry about solving systems of equations with GeoGebra .

GeoGebra Instruction 1

1.
Open CAS and Graphics View in GeoGebra icon View menu.
2.
Type in the vectors you are going to use in your equation in CAS. It is wise to define your vectors using lowercase letters (for example u:=(1,2) and v:=(3,4)). This is because GeoGebra interprets your input as a point, not as a vector, if you use capital letters!
3.
Type Solutions(<equation>) in CAS, where you replace <equation> with your equation. You also need to type the variables you wish to solve in respect to.
