This example demonstrates vector scalar multiplication. By adjusting the scalar value, observe the change in vector length. The Rotate command is used to rotate the vector, and the Point command creates points. Suitable for high school math education, helping students understand the geometric meaning of vectors and the effect of scalar multiplication on vector length.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Vector((0, 0), (a, 0)) → u
  2. Point(yAxis) → A
  3. Rotate(u, α) → v
  4. Rotate(Vector[(b * u)], α) → w
