Find the direction cosines of \(u\) and demonstrate that the sum of the squares of the direction cosines is 1. $$ \mathbf{u}=5 \mathbf{i}+3 \mathbf{j}-\mathbf{k} $$
If the projection of \(\mathbf{u}\) onto \(\mathbf{v}\) has the same magnitude as the projection of \(\mathbf{v}\) onto \(\mathbf{u}\), can you conclude that \(\|\mathbf{u}\|=\|\mathbf{v}\|\) ? Explain.
In Exercises 61 and \(62,\) sketch the solid that has the given description in cylindrical coordinates. $$ 0 \leq \theta \leq 2 \pi, 2 \leq r \leq 4, z^{2} \leq-r^{2}+6 r-8 $$
Find the vector \(z,\) given that \(\mathbf{u}=\langle 1,2,3\rangle\) \(\mathbf{v}=\langle 2,2,-1\rangle,\) and \(\mathbf{w}=\langle 4,0,-4\rangle\) \(\mathbf{z}=2 \mathbf{u}+4 \mathbf{v}-\mathbf{w}\)
In Exercises 77 and \(78,\) use vectors to find the point that lies two-thirds of the way from \(P\) to \(Q\). \(P(4,3,0), \quad Q(1,-3,3)\)
