- use vectors in two dimensions and in three dimensions
- calculate the magnitude and direction of a vector and convert between component form and magnitude/direction form
- add vectors diagrammatically and perform the algebraic operations of vector addition and multiplication by scalars, and understand their geometrical interpretations
- understand and use position vectors; calculate the distance between two points represented by position vectors
- use vectors to solve problems in pure mathematics and in context, (including forces)
