The Dot Product - By Philip Harrison
This Applet Entails A Short Explanation Of What The Dot Product Is, Some Uses Of The Dot Product, How To Calculate The Dot Product Using Various Methods, A Typical Leaving Certificate Example And Solution And A Point And Click Dot Product Calculator [View Applet]

The Relative Perpendicular Vector - By Louise Harte
This Is A Simple Game, Who's Purpose Is To Teach You To Get The Perpendicular Of A Given Vector. [View Applet]

Positional Vectors - By Yousef Hazimee
This Web-page Describes(hopefully) The Concept Of Positional Vectors. It's Quite Easy To Be Honest With You. Positional Vectors Are Almost Identical To Normal Lines Drawn On An X, Y, Axis. The X And Y Co-ordinates Are Known As The I And J Components Of The Vector Respectively. The Magnitude, Vector Component And Direction Of The Vector Will Be Shown Of The Vector Whilst Using The Applet. The Points (x1, Y1) And (x2, Y2) Are The Points Of The Vector. In The Applet X1 And Y1 Are Always Equal To Zero. [View Applet]

Addition Of I + J Vectors - By Maire Hanly
This Applet Demonstrates Graphically The Addition Of I + J Vectors. It Takes In Two Vectors, Represents Them On The Graph And Then Draws The Resultant Vector Due To Their Addition. [View Applet]

Triangle Law & Parallelogram Law - By Gerard Whyte
A Simple Applet To Demonstrate The Parallelogram And Triangle Laws To Do With Vectors. The User Draws The Vectors And Then The Applet Calculates The Resultant Or Equivalent Vector. There Is Also A Simple Game Where The User Can Test Him\herself, And Try To Calculate Where The Resultant Vector Would Be Using The Parallelogram Law. [View Applet]
