We have,
![]()
![]()
(i). We need to find the unit vector in the direction of
.
First, let us calculate
.
As we have,
![]()
Multiply it by 6 on both sides.
![]()
We can easily multiply vector by a scalar by multiplying similar components, that is, vector’s magnitude by the scalar’s magnitude.
![]()
We know that, a unit vector in a normed vector space is a vector (often a spatial vector) of length 1.
To find a unit vector with the same direction as a given vector, we divide by the magnitude of the vector.
For finding unit vector, we have the formula:

Now we know the value of
, so just substitute the value in the above equation.

Here,
.


![]()
Let us simplify.
![]()
![]()
Thus, unit vector in the direction of
is
.
