How many staight lines does a heptagon have?
Seven.
Describe relative positions of ovals originating from a real algebraic curve and as limit cycles of a polynomial vector field on the plane.?
The status to Hilbert's problem remains unresolved.
What is the shortest distance between a straight line and a curve?
If you translate (move without rotation) a copy of the line towards the curve, the first point where the line touches the curve (the tangent to the curve with the slope of the original line) will be the point on the curve closest to the line. Draw a connecting line from this tangent point to the original line, intersecting that original line at right angles. Measure the connecting segment. It is the shortest distance. Vector analysis will give a mathematically strict solution, I do not have the ability to explain this in sufficient detail.
Can a vector be represented in terms of unit vector?
Yes, a vector can be represented in terms of a unit vector which is in the same direction as the vector. it will be the unit vector in the direction of the vector times the magnitude of the vector.
Is vector A parallel vector B given that vector A is equal to the zero vector and vector B is equal to the zero vector?
The zero vector is both parallel and perpendicular to any other vector. V.0 = 0 means zero vector is perpendicular to V and Vx0 = 0 means zero vector is parallel to V.
