Geometric Representation of Vectors.
When introduced to vectors for the first time, learning the geometric representation of vectors can help students understand their significance and what they really mean. The geometric representation of vectors can be used for adding vectors and can frequently be used to represent forces and find their resultant. The algebraic representation is used for more complex calculations.
