To find the unit vector in the opposite direction of \( \overrightarrow{P Q} \), you simply negate the components of the original unit vector. So you would have: \[ \text{Unit vector in the opposite direction of } \overrightarrow{P Q} = \left\langle -\frac{3}{\sqrt{19}}, -\frac{1}{\sqrt{19}}, -\frac{3}{\sqrt{19}} \right\rangle \] This represents a vector with the same magnitude as \( \overrightarrow{PQ} \), but pointing in the opposite direction. And just to give insight into the beauty of vectors, they're not just numbers; they represent direction and magnitude! Imagine arrows floating in space, pointing from one point to another— this is the essence of vectors in geometry!
