- Vector A can be expressed in (i,j,k) notation as 5.0i - 4.0j, and vector B as -7.0i + 2.0j. Determine the value of 3A + 2B in terms of magnitude and angle. The angle can be specified either as a value between 0 and 360 degrees counter- clockwise with respect to the positive x-axis, or as a value between 0 and 90 degrees in the appropriate Cartesian quadrant.
