Aren't vectors defined as having a direction? How can vectors represent a point?

* A quantity, such as velocity, completely specified by a magnitude and a direction.

* A one-dimensional array.

* An element of a vector space

or are you talking about number 3, a concept which I have very little knowledge of.

[x] : [ 1/root(2) -1/root(2) ] [x] = [ 0 0 ]
[y] [ 1/root(2) 1/root(2)] [y] [ 0 0 ]

In my mind translates to

multi dimentional plain with X having a two dimentional vector were is always (0,0)-( 0,0) because anything - itself = 0

and Y having a two dimentional vector is always ( 1/root(2) ,  1/root(2) ) - (0,0)

resolting in no change along X but a liner along Y. If root(2) is a constant.

Hey what can I say , see if I got it right , thats all.
