If you have one vector than the infinite amount of perpendicular vectors will form a plane that is perpendicular to the original vector. If you know one or two of the coordinates of the desired …

Jun 21, 2012 · In 3 dimensions, there are infinitely many different vectors (a 2-dimensional vector space) perpendicular to a given vector. There is no single vector that a formula would generate.

Apr 17, 2012 · But it deserves mention and emphasis. In the plane perpendicular to any vector, the set of vectors of unit length forms a circle. So answers will vary. The vectors $ (-1,2,0)^t$ …

Sep 10, 2020 · Of course GS process is in general the best way to orthogonalize a given set of independent vectors without affect their span, but it doesn't seem more efficent than other …

Dec 22, 2016 · What is a good way to generate an arbitrary vector that is perpendicular to a vector? Given that the generated vector should be valid (i.e. unless the given vector is (0.0, …

You can also use the fact that dot product of vectors equals zero if they are perpendicular. Let u and v be as in the question and z be the perpendicular vector, we have system of two equations:

Apr 10, 2017 · Here's another way to do it: Find a unit vector that is perpendicular to the given vector Scale the unit vector so that it has the given length The little trick to find a perpendicular …

Component of a vector perpendicular to another vector. Ask Question Asked 10 years, 8 months ago Modified 4 years, 4 months ago

4 So I'm given the vector $\vec {v}=5\hat {i}-12\hat {j}$ and I need to find a unit vector perpendicular to this line. I know I need to use the dot product in some way, shape, or form, …

Jan 31, 2024 · All other vectors that are perpendicular to the two given vectors will be colinear to your vector, so you have determined it precisely. Note that this is not true in higher dimensions …
