Addition of Vectors

Triangle Law of Addition of Vectors

Triangle Law of Addition of vectors states that, if two vectors are represented in magnitude and direction by the two sides of a triangle taken in the same order, then their sum is represented by the third side taken in the reverse order.

Parallelogram Law of Addition of Vectors

If the vectors are represented by two adjacent sides of a parallelogram, the diagonal of the parallelogram will represent the sum of the vectors.
