Abstract

The application of vector methods in solving mathematical problems represents one of the effective pedagogical approaches aimed at enhancing student motivation. This methodology not only helps students master vector formulas and apply them to specialized problems but also develops their ability to utilize vector techniques in solving other types of mathematical problems. This approach contributes to: increasing students' cognitive interest in mathematics; developing the skill of applying vector methods across diverse mathematical contexts; fostering a deeper understanding of geometric and algebraic relationships. Thus, integrating vector methods into the learning process enhances not only computational skills but also promotes flexible mathematical reasoning.
