#2(4 pt’s). Let x = (3, 4, –1) and y = (–5, 2, 1).
a.
Find x .
b.
Find projx y
 x  1  2sin t

#3(4 pts) Describe the curve given parametrically by  y  3  sin t , 0  t  2 . (You need not
 z  2  3sin t

graph the curve). Be as explicit as possible. Describe the shape of the curve and how it is
traced out as t goes from 0 to 2 .
#4(4 pt’s) Let u , v , w  3 . Determine whether each statement is true or false. If true, prove it. If
false, give an example that demonstrates it is false.

i.
If u  0 and u w  u v , then w  v
ii.
u v  u v
