Your Input

Find the unit vector in the direction of $$$\mathbf{\vec{u}} = \left\langle 1, 1\right\rangle$$$.

Solution

The magnitude of the vector is $$$\mathbf{\left\lvert\vec{u}\right\rvert} = \sqrt{2}$$$ (for steps, see magnitude calculator).

The unit vector is obtained by dividing each coordinate of the given vector by the magnitude.

Thus, the unit vector is $$$\mathbf{\vec{e}} = \left\langle \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}, \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right\rangle$$$ (for steps, see vector scalar multiplication calculator).

Answer

The unit vector in the direction of $$$\left\langle 1, 1\right\rangle$$$A is $$$\left\langle \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}, \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right\rangle\approx \left\langle 0.707106781186548, 0.707106781186548\right\rangle.$$$A
