- Type in the vectors you are going to use in your equation in
CAS. It is wise to define your vectors using lowercase letters (for exampleu:=(1,2)andv:=(3,4)). This is becauseGeoGebrainterprets your input as a point, not as a vector, if you use capital letters! - 3.
- Type
Solutions(<equation>)inCAS, where you replace<equation>with your equation. You also need to type the variables you wish to solve in respect to.
