1. Problem Description

We are given two points A and B with coordinates A(3, 2) and B(5, 6). We need to find the column vector AB\vec{AB}.

2. Solution Steps

To find the column vector AB\vec{AB}, we subtract the coordinates of point A from the coordinates of point B.
If A=(x1,y1)A = (x_1, y_1) and B=(x2,y2)B = (x_2, y_2), then the vector AB\vec{AB} is given by
AB=(x2x1y2y1)\vec{AB} = \begin{pmatrix} x_2 - x_1 \\ y_2 - y_1 \end{pmatrix}.
In our case, A=(3,2)A = (3, 2) and B=(5,6)B = (5, 6). Therefore,
AB=(5362)=(24)\vec{AB} = \begin{pmatrix} 5 - 3 \\ 6 - 2 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 4 \end{pmatrix}.

3. Final Answer

The column vector AB\vec{AB} is (24)\begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 4 \end{pmatrix}.
