The LaTeX command \Overrightarrow{AB} is used to denote a vector with an arrow over the letters A and B, indicating direction from point A to point B. This is commonly used in mathematics and physics to represent vectors in a clear and visually distinct manner.

Examples

A B + BC = A C

Vector addition of \Overrightarrow{AB} and \Overrightarrow{BC} resulting in \Overrightarrow{AC}.

\Overrightarrow{AB} + \Overrightarrow{BC} = \Overrightarrow{AC}

∣ A B ∣ = 5

The magnitude of vector \Overrightarrow{AB} is 5 units.

|\Overrightarrow{AB}| = 5

A B \cdot C D = 0

Dot product of vectors \Overrightarrow{AB} and \Overrightarrow{CD} is zero, indicating they are perpendicular.

\Overrightarrow{AB} \cdot \Overrightarrow{CD} = 0
