CHAPTER 11
Vectors and the Space Geometry
Our space may be viewed as a collection of points. Every geometri-
cal figure, such as a sphere, plane, or line, is a special subset of points in
space. The main purpose of an algebraic description of various objects
in space is to develop a systematic representation of these objects by
numbers. Interestingly enough, our experience shows that so far real
numbers and basic rules of their algebra appear to be sufficient to de-
scribe all fundamental laws of nature, model everyday phenomena, and
even predict many of them. The evolution of the Universe, forces bind-
ing particles in atomic nuclei, and atomic nuclei and electrons forming
atoms and molecules, star and planet formation, chemistry, DNA struc-
tures, and so on, all can be formulated as relations between quantities
that are measured and expressed as real numbers. Perhaps, this is
the most intriguing property of the Universe, which makes mathemat-
ics the main tool of our understanding of the Universe. The deeper
our understanding of nature becomes, the more sophisticated are the
mathematical concepts required to formulate the laws of nature. But
they remain based on real numbers. In this course, basic mathematical
concepts needed to describe various phenomena in a three-dimensional
Euclidean space are studied. The very fact that the space in which
we live is a three-dimensional Euclidean space should not be viewed as
an absolute truth. All one can say is that this mathematical model of
the physical space is sufficient to describe a rather large set of physical
phenomena in everyday life. As a matter of fact, this model fails to
describe phenomena on a large scale (e.g., our galaxy). It might also
fail at tiny scales, but this has yet to be verified by experiments.
71. Rectangular Coordinates in Space
The elementary object in space is a point. So the discussion should
begin with the question: How can one describe a point in space by real
numbers? The following procedure can be adopted. Select a particular
point in space called the origin and usually denoted O. Set up three
mutually perpendicular lines through the origin. A real number is
associated with every point on each line in the following way. The
origin corresponds to 0. Distances to points on one side of the line

2 11. VECTORS AND THE SPACE GEOMETRY
from the origin are denoted by positive real numbers, while distances
to points on the other half of the line are denoted by negative numbers
(the absolute value of a negative number is the distance). The half-lines
with the grid of positive numbers will be indicated by arrows pointing
from the origin to distinguish the half-lines with the grid of negative
numbers. The described system of lines with the grid of real numbers
on them is called a rectangular coordinate system at the origin O.The
lines with the constructed grid of real numbers are called coordinate
axes.
71.1. Points in Space as Ordered Triples of Real Numbers. The position
of any point in space can be uniquely specified as an ordered triple of real
numbers relative to a given rectangular coordinate system. Consider
a rectangular box whose two opposite vertices (the endpoints of the
largest diagonal) are the origin and a point P , while its sides that are
adjacent at the origin lie on the axes of the coordinate system. For
every point P , there is only one such rectangular box. It is uniquely
determined by its three sides adjacent at the origin. Let the number
x denote the position of one such side that lies on the first axis; the
numbers y and z do so for the second and third sides, respectively.
Note that, depending on the position of P ,thenumbersx, y,and
z may be negative, positive, or even 0. In other words, any point in
space is associated with a unique ordered triple of real numbers (x, y, z)
determined relative to a rectangular coordinate system. This ordered
triple of numbers is called rectangular coordinates of a point. To reflect
the order in (x, y, z), the axes of the coordinate system will be denoted
as x, y,andz axes. Thus, to find a point in space with rectangular
coordinates (1, 2, −3), one has to construct a rectangular box with a
vertex at the origin such that its sides adjacent at the origin occupy the
intervals [0, 1], [0, 2], and [−3, 0] along the x, y,andz axes, respectively.
The point in question is the vertex opposite to the origin.
71.2. A Point as an Intersection of Coordinate Planes. The plane con-
taining the x and y axes is called the xy plane. For all points in this
plane, the z coordinate is 0. The condition that a point lies in the xy
plane can therefore be stated as z =0. Thexz and yz planes can be
defined similarly. The condition that a point lies in the xz or yz plane
reads y =0orx = 0, respectively. The origin (0, 0, 0) can be viewed
as the intersection of three coordinate planes x =0,y =0,andz =0.
Consider all points in space whose z coordinate is fixed to a particular
value z = z
0
(e.g., z = 1). They form a plane parallel to the xy plane
that lies |z
0
| units of length above it if z
0
> 0 or below it if z
0
< 0.

Translation of the coordinate system. The origin is moved
toapoint(x
0
,y
0
,z

) relative to the old coordinate system
while the coordinate axes remain parallel to the axes of the
old system. This is achieved by translating the origin first
along the x axis by the distance x
0
(as shown in the figure),
then along the y axis by the distance y
0
, and finally along
the z axis by the distance z
0
. As a result, a point P that had
coordinates (x, y, z) in the old system will have the coordi-
nates x
= x − x

= y − y

,andz
= z − z
0
in the new
coordinate system.
ApointP with coordinates (x

) can therefore be viewed as an
intersection of three coordinate planes x = x

as
shown in Figure 11.1. The faces of the rectangle introduced to specify
the position of P relative to a rectangular coordinate system lie in the
coordinate planes. The coordinate planes are perpendicular to the cor-
responding coordinate axes: the plane x = x
0
is perpendicular to the
x axis, and so on.
71.3. Changing the Coordinate System. Since the origin and directions
of the axes of a coordinate system can be chosen arbitrarily, the co-
ordinates of a point depend on this choice. Suppose a point P has
coordinates (x, y, z). Consider a new coordinate system whose axes are
4 11. VECTORS AND THE SPACE GEOMETRY
parallel to the corresponding axes of the old coordinate system, but
whose origin is shifted to the point O
with coordinates (x
0
, 0, 0). It
is straightforward to see that the point P would have the coordinates
(x −x
0
,y,z) relative to the new coordinate system (Figure 11.1, right
panel). Similarly, if the origin is shifted to a point O
with coordinates
(x
0
,y
0
,z
0
), while the axes remain parallel to the corresponding axes of
the old coordinate system, then the coordinates of P are transformed as
(11.1) (x, y, z) −→ (x −x
0
,y− y
0
,z−z
0
) .
One can change the orientation of the coordinate axes by rotating
them about the origin. The coordinates of the same point in space are
different in the original and rotated rectangular coordinate systems.
Algebraic relations between old and new coordinates can be established.
A simple case, when a coordinate system is rotated about one of its
axes, is discussed in Study Problem 11.2.
It is important to realize that no physical or geometrical quantity
should depend on the choice of a coordinate system. For example, the
length of a straight line segment must be the same in any coordinate
system, while the coordinates of its endpoints depend on the choice of
the coordinate system. When studying a practical problem, a coordi-
nate system can be chosen in any way convenient to describe objects in
space. Algebraic rules for real numbers (coordinates) can then be used
to compute physical and geometrical characteristics of the objects. The
numerical values of these characteristics do not depend on the choice
of the coordinate system.
71.4. Distance Between Two Points. Consider two points in space, P
1
and P
2
. Let their coordinates relative to some rectangular coordinate
system be (x
1
,y
1
,z
1
)and(x
2
,y
2
,z
2
), respectively. How can one calcu-
late the distance between these points, or the length of a straight line
segment with endpoints P
1
and P
2
?ThepointP

point of three coordinate planes x = x

,andz = z

.Thepoint
P
2
is the intersection point of three coordinate planes x = x
2
, y = y
2
,
and z = z
2
. These six planes contain faces of the rectangular box whose
largest diagonal is the straight line segment between the points P
1
and
P
2
. The question therefore is how to find the length of this diagonal.
Consider three sides of this rectangular box that are adjacent, say,
at the vertex P
1
. The side parallel to the x axis lies between the
coordinate planes x = x
1
and x = x
2
and is perpendicular to them. So
the length of this side is |x
2
− x
1
|. The absolute value is necessary as
the difference x
2
− x
1
may be negative, depending on the values of x
1
and x
2
, whereas the distance must be nonnegative. Similar arguments

taining the x and y axes is called the xy plane. For all points in this
plane,
